ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS:
We are grateful to the Catalogers at North Carolina State
University (NCSU) for the use of their practice bibliographic
records and to Robert L. Maxwell, BYU, and Jay Weitz, OCLC, for
their expertise and training.

THIS PRESENTATION:
Presupposes a knowledge of basic monographic cataloging rules We will cover fields and procedures not used in book cataloging.
 AACR2
 RDA
 MARC 21
Is not comprehensive
Is a practical approach.

TOPICS NOT ADDRESSED:
FRBR & FRAD
Using the RDA Toolkit
How to create RDA records
Impact on authority processes

RDA: RESOURCE DESCRIPTION AND ACCESS
Designed for the digital world and an expanding universe of
metadata users, RDA: Resource Description and Access is the
new, unified cataloging standard—an evolution of the cataloging
principles from AACR2, with rules carried over or adapted to the
RDA model.
5
BENEFITS OF RDA
• A structure based on the conceptual models of FRBR (functional
requirements for bibliographic data) and FRAD (functional
requirements for authority data) to help catalog users find the
information they need more easily
• Instructions are largely modified from its AACR2 precedents
• A flexible framework for content description of digital resources
that also serves the needs of libraries organizing traditional
resources
• A better fit with emerging database technologies

(so here is a little joke while we wait…)

Just one, but they have to wait to see how the
