Internet impact

Catalogs are no longer in isolation

Global access to data

Integrate bibliographic data with wider

Internet environment

Share data beyond institutions

Current Cataloging Environment

Web-based

Wide range of information carriers with

complexity of content

Metadata (bibliographic information) Created by a wider range of personnel

in and outside libraries Element-based metadata schemas

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, Web OPACs, etc.)

12


13/60

Goals of RDA

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 appropriate13

FRBR seems new

But the concepts of the three groups

are in our catalogs

The concepts have not been clear inpast cataloging rules

More clarity for catalogers, fordesigners of databases/catalogs, and

Summary of differences

Based on principles

Based on conceptual models

Content, not encoding, standard

More international

Wider scope of resources

Includes authority data

Has controlled vocabularies

Changes in instruction vocabulary

Core elements36


37/60

RDA is a content standard

Not a display standard (as is AACR2)

Does have appendix D for ISBD and

appendix E for AACR2 style for accesspoints

Not an encoding standard

Use whatever schema you prefer (MARC21, Dublin Core, etc.)

Basic goals: identify and relate (fromFRBR/FRAD user tasks and ICP)

Chapters: separate elements for goalsAssemble those elements when need

RDA not to be read linearly

in Toolkit

Using the online RDA Toolkit:

Jumping in via keyword searches

To elements from Table of Contents pane

Following links Seeing some duplication of content (needed for

context)

Can print chapters from Toolkit Printed text version of RDA is available

Publishers considering Essential RDA

Core elements in RDA

Based on attributes mandatory for a

national level record in FRBR and

FRAD

Core elements listed as a group in

RDA 0.6 and separately in appropriate

chapters

Agency, consortium, etc., can add others

Core-ness identified at

element level in RDA

If always a core element (if applicable andavailable), label CORE ELEMENT appearsbelow element name

If use as a core element depends upon the

situation, the label CORE ELEMENT isfollowed by an explanation of the situation
