description
the ncid identifier is a sequentially assigned number that 
uniquely identifies an NACSIS-CAT bibliographic record.  In 
November 2006 there were about 8 million bibliographic and 
90 million holding records in NACSIS-CAT. 

If a record is merged into another or if a record is deleted, 
its number is discontinued and never re-used. 

Information on NACSIS-CAT is available at 
http://www.nii.ac.jp/CAT-ILL/contents-e/e_ncat_top.html.
