Objectives
• Compare 8 cases of ETD or dissertation treatment
• Offer models in RDA to remedy some of these
• Looks at certain aspects and pitfalls of BibFrame
Digital Projects versus Cataloging Objectives
Digital Projects
Metadata for each item Audio Center staff adds
metadata for sound recordings
Access to the PDF files Access to Recordings Local usage of audio
files
Cataloging
Metadata for international audience
Unification of all metadata, PDF files, recordings
Linkage between various files, audio or text
Variables includes UNT and other universities’ requirements for DMA. UNT seems to require more substantiation in recitals and a more academic thesis. The subject of the lecture unifies the final recital.

Advantages: Unified or integrated bibliographic record of the
document, all recitals, and the lecture recital. Topic has focus: Title created by student OCLC users may see the entirety of links, and
observe listed contents online, including contents of the audio recording itself.
Like other streamed recording, only those in the UNT community of users can listen to the audio.
Curation controlled by Digital Projects
Case number 1: UNT ETD
Limitation: OCLC record has access points only for the
document, not all the recordings.
Case number 1: UNT ETD
Michael C. Thursby Recital, a physical manifestation, with
printed abstract as accompanying material Advantage: OCLC access points to specific
pieces CDs available for local circulation RDAizing the record creates links
Case number 2: University of Northern Iowa
Michael C. Thursby RDAizing the record creates links
◦ Relationship designators:

Case number 2: University of Northern Iowa
Thesis by Anastasios Polis Thesis and six supplementary recordings,
including interviews and concerts Advantage: OCLC access to each
manifestation Disadvantage: None is linked
Case number 3: Ohio University
Thesis by Anastasios Polis RDAizing the record creates links, that are
reciprocal
The annotated thematic index is augmented by each recording.
Each recording augments the annotated thematic index.
Case number 3: Ohio University
[Tiffany Damicone recital] No paper dissertation with recital No lecture, no unifying text Title devised by cataloguer
Case number 4:Ohio State University
Juliana Yap Document only. No recitals in the library. No recitals online. Theme of unity, without performances Recitals did occur, but the programs and
recordings may reside within the Music Department.
Case number 5:West Virginia University
Isaac Bustos Four disjointed recitals But the program of the last recital is the
title of the lecture: Un Tiempo Fue Italica Famosa: A Synthesis of Joaquin Rodrigo’s Composition Styles
Minimal level cataloging given to these recordings
Contrived titles, less tangible; one could have been distinctive
Case number 6:University of Texas at Austin
Final recital of Isaac Bustos was titled
Name changes, even from a change in the manifestation of the same work
Barbara C. Phillips Farley Entered as Farley, Barbara C. Phillips. For
the 1991 dissertation Entered as Phillips-Farley, Barbara, ǂe
author. For the digitized 1991 dissertation
Case number 7:University of Iowa
Previous policy at UNT was to unite all manifestations of the dissertations.
Advantage: expediency, allowing one to simply change local system, III
Disadvantages: Manifestations are not reflected in OCLC
Interlibrary Loan may bypass UNT, even though there is an available copy, but in long term, digital will prevail.
Solution: RDA allows linkages such as “Reproduction of” or “Reproduced as”.
Case number 8:Unity for the sake of expediency
The virtuoso clarinet: arrangements from nineteenth-century opera: a lecture recital, together with three recitals of selected works of B. Bartók, J. Brahms, E. Carter, B. Crusell, M. Clyne, C.

Conclusions
Streaming Audio available only at UNT
Audio discs or streaming audio available locally.
UNT Practice treats lecture as unifying element/title
Bibliographic record resembles a kit with accompanying material
Links are made. Audio contents available
to view. Better long term
management.
Other models Leave disjointed
performances, unlinked
Ignore the performance altogether
Require contrived titles, with less tangibility
BibFrame
• http://www.loc.gov/bibframe/ • Bibliographic Framework Initiative• Initiated by the Library of Congress,
BIBFRAME provides a foundation for the future of bibliographic description, both on the web, and in the broader networked world.
