STATEMENT OF RESPONSIBILITY
• Front cover
Dear Reader,
Unless you are a slug, a sea anemone, or mildew, you
probably prefer not to be damp. You might also prefer not
to read this book, in which the Baudelaire siblings uncover
an unpleasant amount of dampness as they descend into
the depths of despair, underwater.
With all due respect,
Lemony Snicket

RDA COMPLIANT?
• Which of the following 264s are RDA compliant?
• 264 _1 ‡a [Minneapolis : ‡b Poor Peoples Press, ‡c 1985?]
• NOT. Uses AACR2 punctuation. Correct form in RDA is:
• 264 _1 ‡a [Minneapolis] : ‡b [Poor Peoples Press], ‡c [1985?]
• 264 _1 ‡a New Haven [Conn.] : ‡b Elm St. Co., ‡c 2014.
• NOT. AACR2 requires the cataloger to look up the appropriate
abbreviation for the state. RDA practice is to spell out the
larger jurisdiction while leaving any abbreviations on the item
as found:
• 264 _1 ‡a New Haven [Connecticut] : ‡b Elm St. Company, ‡c
2014.
Or: Elm St. Co. -depends on what
appears in the book
2/26/2013
27
RDA COMPLIANT?
• 264 RDA compliance continued:
• 264 _1 ‡a [Minnesota] : ‡b [publisher not identified], ‡c
[2015]
264 _2 ‡a [Northfield, Minnesota] : ‡b Fell Off the
Truck Distributing Service, ‡c 2015.
• RDA compliant!
• If you can't identify an element of the publication statement,
you must record the distributor name (if no distributor name,
then record the printing statement). In this case, if you cannot
identify the publisher, then make a second 264 (note the
indicator) for the distributor

WHICH OF THESE USE A PERIOD AT
THE END OF THE FIELD?
• 245 __ … / ‡c by Jenna Jones [and 20 others]
• YES, 245 must always end with a period even if it results in double
punctuation. With RDA dropping [et al.], ending 245 with a bracket is
less of an issue unless the optional [and x others] catches on
• 250 __ ‡a Third, revised ed.
• NO-- the period for the abbreviation is all you need
• 250 __ ‡a 3rd revised edition
• YES, if 250 does not end with an abbreviation, a period is required
• 264 _1 … ‡c [2012]
• NO, don't double punctuate at the end of 264 (cp. 245)
• 300 … cm if there is no series
• NO
2/26/2013
34
IS IT AN ERROR
• Is the 245 for Macroeconomics in error or is it cataloger judgment?
• It's an error; consult with your supervisor. Added entries for
authors are not mandatory, however.
• The illustrator and the author of the introduction are not recorded in
245 $c . Is this an error or a cataloger decision?
• It's a cataloger decision; only the first statement of responsibility
is core. Considering that it's a graphic novel, leaving out the
illustration is not a very good decision. An added entry for the
illustrator or even the author of the introduction would still be OK
2/26/2013
35
BRACKETING
• Which of the following require brackets?
• Statement of responsibility taken from the cover
• NO
• Statement of responsibility taken from the verso of the title page?
• NO
• Statement of responsibility taken from the book jacket?
• YES, add brackets if the transcription source is external
• Statement of responsibility taken from accompanying material?
• YES, accompanying material is "external"
• Unnumbered leaves in 300
• NO-- use "unnumbered leaves"

(unnumbered)).
