It's first at the company, i suspect, thus the assertion that they are "following in the footsteps of such institutions as the Smithsonian’s Archives of American Art and the National Archives and Records Administration." It's possible they would be open to someone remote: the group in the San Mateo office travel a great deal and collaborate with remote offices. It's worth pointing it out to those folks.

Off the top of my head, OCLC has a name authority system used by librarians when entering authors' and other names: that might be of some interest.

I am very clear that the train wreck i can see unfolding is in no way my fault. My struggle is mostly how i frame my understanding of the role i can play. It's not like a real train wreck in that irreversible harm may come to my staff, but it is witnessing negligence. I've done my best to make sure my staff are not overloaded so they can respond to the "crisis." I need to care less, now.
