Subject indexing is vital for discovery but hard to sustain at scale and across languages. We release a large bilingual (English/German) corpus of catalog records annotated with the Integrated Authority File (GND), plus a machine-actionable GND taxonomy. The resource enables ontology-aware multi-label classification, mapping text to authority terms, and agent-assisted cataloging with reproducible, authority-grounded evaluation. We provide a brief statistical profile and qualitative error analyses of three systems. We invite the community to assess not only accuracy but usefulness and transparency, toward authority-anchored AI co-pilots that amplify catalogers’ work.
