Data Value Registries for Controlled Vocabularies Values for attributes, e.g.: Work-Expression content types (RDA/ONIX) Manifestation carrier types: (RDA/ONIX) Concepts: (e.g., LCSH subject heading strings)
Categories of entities FRBR & FRAD: work, expression, manifestation, item,
person, family, corporate body, concept, object, event, place

Where are we headed?

What’s wrong with AACR2?
Increasingly complex
Lack of logical structure
Mixing content and carrier data
Hierarchical relationships missing
Written before FRBR
Not enough support for collocation
Before Internet and well-formed metadata
Anglo-American centric viewpoint
Based on slide from Ann Chapman, UKOLN

GOALS:
RDA will be …
A new standard for resource description
and access
Designed for the digital world
• Optimized for use as an online product
• Description and access of all resources
All types of content and media
• Resulting records usable in the digital
environment (Internet/Semantic Web, Web
OPACs, etc.)
20
RDA – The Goals Rules should be easy to use and interpret
Be applicable to an online, networked environment
Provide effective bibliographic control for all types of media
Encourage use beyond the library community
Be compatible with other similar standards
Have a logical structure based on internationally agreed principles
Separate content and carrier data
Examples – more of them, more appropriate
