Organization of RDA

• Tab marked RDA = the RDA instructions• Tab marked Tools = mappings, workflows,

schemas• Tab marked Resources = other resources:

AACR2, LC-PCC Policy Statements

41

Organization of RDA• Introduction• Recording attributes of the FRBR entities

– Chapters 1-7: Group 1 entities (WEMI)– Chapters 8-11: Group 2 entities (PFC)– Chapters 12-16: Group 3 entities (COEP)

• Recording relationships (Chapters 17-32)• Appendixes

– Abbreviation– Capitalization– Relationship designators

• Glossary• Index

42

Organization of RDA (Introduction)

• Chapter 0

• Core elements: 0.6

• Internationalization: 0.11

43

Internationalization

• 0.11.2. Some elements are to be transcribed as they appear (see RDA 1.4). “Other elements are generally recorded in the language and script preferred by the agency creating the data.”

• Instructions calling for a controlled list in English may be modified to reflect the language of the agency.

44

Organization of RDA (Attributes)

• Section 1 (Ch. 1-4) = Manifestation & Item• Section 2 (Ch. 5-7) = Work & Expression• Section 3 (Ch. 8-11) = Person, Family, &

Corporate Body• Section 4 (Ch. 12-16) = Concept, Object, Event,

& Place

45

Structure of the Attributes Chapters

• Structure of “attributes” chapters in RDA– Purpose and scope– General guidelines, including allowed sources– Guidelines for specific attributes– Guidelines for constructing access points (called

“headings” in AACR2)

Exercise: Using the RDA Toolkit

• Expand the Table of Contents to find the instruction for guidance on:–Capitalization ___________________– Extent of text ____________________–Numbering within Series ___________– Illustrative content ________________– Form of work ____________________

54

• Find the instruction for creating a contents note– Try Quick Search Box – Try Advanced Search and include LC-PCC PS

– What worked best?

55

Exercise: Using the RDA Toolkit

• Using the MARC Bibliographic to RDA mapping (Tools tab), find the RDA instruction(s) for these fields & subfields. Is there a LC-PCC PS?– 100 $d Dates _________________– 260 $b Publisher _______________– 300 $c Dimensions _____________

56

Exercise: Using the RDA Toolkit

• Using ANY method, find the RDA instruction for

– Corporate main entry (AACR2 21.1B2): ________________

– Authorized access point for moving images: ________________

– Mode of issuance: _______________

57

Exercise: Using the RDA Toolkit

Exercise Answers: Using the RDA Toolkit

• Expand the Table of Contents to find the instruction for guidance on:–Capitalization 1.7.2 and Appendix A– Extent of text 3.4.5–Numbering within Series 2.12.9– Illustrative content 7.15– Form of work 6.3

58

• Find the instruction for creating a contents note– Try Quick Search Box – Try Advanced Search and include LC-PCC PS

– What worked best?• Advanced Search, including the LC-PCC PS, works

best because RDA does not use the term “contents note”• RDA 25.1.1.3, Recording Relationships to Related

Works + LC-PCC PS59

Exercise Answers: Using the RDA Toolkit

• Using the MARC Bibliographic to RDA mapping (Tools tab), find the RDA instruction(s) for these fields & subfields. Is there a LC-PCC PS?

100 $d Dates: 9.3 LCC-PCC PS for 9.3.1.3260 $b Publisher: 2.8.4 LCC-PCC PS for 2.8.4.2300 $c Dimensions: 3.5 (general) + LC-PCC PS

60

Exercise Answers: Using the RDA Toolkit

• Using ANY method, find the RDA instruction for:– Corporate main entry (AACR2 21.1B2):

19.2.1.1.1 + LC-PCC PS– Authorized access point for moving images:

6.27.1.3 (Exception for moving image works points to 6.2.2)

– Mode of issuance: 1.1.3 (Terminology) 2.13 (Recording it)
