Library of Congress RDA Training Site
• LC maintains an RDA Training Materials Site that you can consult. All materials are free to access
• http://www.loc.gov/catworkshop/RDA%20training%20materials/
RDA Copy Cataloging Issues
• General guidelines and terminology
• Learn how to identify an RDA record
• Learn the concepts behind Works, Expressions, Manifestations, Items
• Learn how to use the RDA Toolkit to find relevant RDA information
• Develop local RDA policies and procedures
Cataloging with RDA
• International cataloging Principles (IFLA: 2009)
• new concepts, terms, instructions, workflows
• updated MARC tags, subfields and codes to accommodate RDA elements
Most of us will continue
• to encode in MARC21 using a few new tags such as 336, 337, 338
• to use ISBD punctuation, which is included in appendix D (D.1.2)
What is new What is familiar
Why RDA?
• Catalogs are no longer in isolation– Global access to data– ‘linked data systems’
• Integrate bibliographic data with wider Internet environment– Share data beyond institutions– Any user – any place – any time
Supposed AACR2 “Problems”• Increasingly complex
• Lack of logical structure
• Mix of content and carrier data
• Hierarchical relationships are missing
• Anglo-American centric
• Pre-dates FRBR
• Not enough support for ‘collocation’
• Did not foresee Internet and well-formed metadata or vocabularies
RDA: Tool for the Digital World• Easy to use and interpret
• Applicable to an online, networked environment
• Provide effective bibliographic control for all types of media
• Encourage use beyond library community • Compatible with other similar standards • Have a logical structure based on
internationally agreed-upon principles • Separate content and carrier data, and
separate content from display • Examples – numerous and appropriate
Structure of RDA Online
• Entities and their attributes– Group 1 (Work-Expression-
Manifestation-Item) (Chapters 1-7)– Group 2 (Personal-Family-Corporate
Body) (Chapters 8-16)
• Relationships (Chapters 17-37)• Appendicies A-L

RDA: What it is -- A Content Standard
• Not a display standard (as is AACR2)– But it does contain …
• Appendix D for ISBD• Appendix E for AACR2 style for access points
• Not an encoding standard– ‘Schema-neutral’– Can be encoded in:
• MARC 21• Dublin Core• etc.
Int’l cataloging Principles (2009)
Convenience of the user descriptions and controlled forms
of names for access should be made with the user in mind
Representation descriptions & forms of names
should be based on the way an entity describes itself
Accuracythe entity should be faithfully
portrayed
ICP in RDA 1.2The data should • serve to differentiate• be sufficient to help the user
select an appropriate resource • reflect the resource’s
representation of itself • accurately correct or clarify
ambiguous, unintelligible, or misleading representations
• reflect common usage
RDA Example: 2.8.1.4 and 2.20.7.3
Reflect the resource’s representation of itself, while providing information to correct or clarify
260 $a Belfast500 $a Actually published in
Dublin.
1.4 Language & Script
Transcribe elements in the language and script in which they appear
• Alternative if an element listed cannot be recorded in the script used on the source, record it in a transliterated form.
• Optional addition record an element in a transliterated form in addition to the form recorded in the script used on the source.
1.7 Transcription• capitalize the first word of a
title, the first word of a name … as applicable to the language involved
• transcribe marks of punctuation as they appear
A.4 For titles with unusual capitalization, follow the capitalization of the title as found on the source of information
Transcribing titles proper
245 $a Trina’s gide to rock climbing
246 $i Corrected title:
$a Trina’s guide to rock climbing
• Trina’s gide [sic] to rock climbing
• Trina’s g[u]ide
• Trina’s gide [i.e. guide]

Before you begin• Determine the mode of issuance• Choose the type of description• Develop local policy for
alternatives and options, or decide to leave to the discretion of the individual cataloger
• In RDA, LCPS have been reissued and renamed LC-PCC-PS (Library of Congress, Program for Cooperative Cataloging, Policy Statement)
1.1.3 Mode of Issuancemonograph complete in one part or
intended to be completed within a finite number of parts
multipart monograph issued in two or more parts (either simultaneously or successively) that is complete or intended to be completed within a finite number of parts
serial issued in successive parts, usually bearing numbering, no predetermined conclusion
integrating resource added to or changed by means of updates that do not remain discrete
1.5.1 Type of Descriptioncomprehensivedescribe a single- or multi-part
resource, serial, integrating resource, assembled collection
analyticaldescribe a part contained within a
larger resourcehierarchicaldescribe a resource consisting of 2
or more parts using both comprehensive and analytical descriptions
Choices in RDA
• elements beyond Core and Core if to include in local cataloging (see LC Core Elements list)
• alternatives to do something different than instructed
• optional omissions• optional additions• adherence to your local agency’s
policies
Choice of Different Approaches
3.4.5.3 when giving the extent of a resource consisting entirely of unnumbered pages, use one of the following
300 $a 93 unnumbered pages
300 $a approximately 90 pages
300 $a 1 volume (unpaged)
0.6 Core ElementsAs a minimum, a resource
description should include all the core elements that are applicable and readily ascertainable.
The description should also include any additional elements that are required in a particular case to differentiate the resource from one or more other resources.
The inclusion of other specific elements is discretionary
Recommend following LC

• see appendix J
• between a resource and persons, families, and corporate bodies associated with

Summary of Changes• Do not create or introduce
abbreviations• No instructions to use Latin
abbreviations• “Take what you see” principle
of transcription means we now transcribe inaccuracies, add a note if warranted
• No more GMDs• No more rule of 3• Make the relationships between
entities clear(er)
Summary of Changes - 2Publication date is core for published
resources, so a date or probable date or “date of publication not identified” must always be present
Copyright date is a separate element in RDA and is not a substitute for a publication date. Copyright date is a core element if neither the date of publication nor the date of distribution is identified; may be used as inferred publication date
If more than one place of publication or publisher’s name appears, only the first recorded is required.
… using the MARC record is a step backward, since it cannot accommodate key RDA concepts like FRBR entities and relationships
