What is RDA?
RDA: Resource Description and Access
• New cataloguing standard, replacing AACR2
• Guidelines on cataloguing digital resources
• Stronger emphasis on helping users find, identify, select and obtain the info they want
• “clustering” bibliographic records to show relationships
3
RDA is International
• A collaborative effort: JSC, LOC, Dublin Core, IFLA
• Use FRBR and FRAD as a theoretical foundation
• Emphasize “taking what you see” approach to description – encouraging machine capture of metadata
4
Description, Encoding, Display
RDA
MARC BibFrame
Display on Web
Display for library Display
for archive
6
RDA and AACR2
• To make RDA different, but compatible
• Designed to work in current catalogues
• RDA records will co-exist with AACR2 records in the same databases
• Not just for libraries
• Designed for current and future environments
• Flexible to support description of all types of resources
14
AACR2
Description: [37] p. : col. Ill. ; 28 cm.
*use of latin and standard abbreviations
RDA
Description: 37 unnumbered pages : color illustrations ; 28 cm.
* record as written (no abbreviations!)

AACR2

RDA built on FRBR, FRAD
• Record data that is important to the user
• Importance based on relationship to tasks
• Careful distinction between content and carrier
• Broad base of international support (IFLA)
• Help users : find, identify, select and obtain
19
1. Work
• The abstract idea, or intellectual creation
Eg. “Dracula” (the abstract idea/story that came from the mind of Bram Stoker)
22
2. Expression
• The fulfillment of those ideas through words, sound, images.
(same story, different ways of telling the story)
24
2. Expression
• Same expression
- First edition
- Reprints, facsimiles
• New expression
– Dracula (Spanish translation)
– New edition (with new foreword)
– Illustrated edition (same # of chapters)
– Audio CD (same text)
25
3. Manifestation
• The physical embodiment of that expression
– Eg. Dracula [paperback]
– Eg. Dracula [e-book]
(same text or words, different means of delivery)
26
4. Item
• An actual copy of a particular manifestation
• Eg. Dracula [DVD]

Considerations
• Establishing local practices and policies
• Derived cataloguing: What to accept? what to correct?
• What constitutes a ‘good’ RDA record?
• What to ask your vendors (hybrid records)
• What to display in Public Catalogue
