Agenda

Introduction Research about R.D.A. Terminology Historical context

Major goals Examples Major changes M.A.R.C. changes

Theoretical basis (F.R.B.R.) F.R.B.R. examples

Sanchez (2011) asked cataloguers about R.D.A. Top three responses: “uncertainty” (62.0%), then

“curiosity” (43.3%) and “interest” (34.3%) Feelings of “resignation” (33.5%), “anxiety”

(20.9%) and “fear” (4.6%) were greater than “acceptance” (13.7%), “positive anticipation” (9.3%) and “glad it’s coming” (5.1%)

Cataloguers agreed that R.D.A. will allow better sharing of our data (45.3% to 18.6%), that A.A.C.R. is too based in cards (47.3% to 40.3%), and that F.R.B.R. is necessary for future catalogues (37.1% to 34.5%)

Research

Sanchez (2011) found that cataloguers accept the new standard while questioning its utility: Cataloguers thought R.D.A. would replace A.A.C.R.

(47.2% to 14.5%) but that A.A.C.R. can accommodate digital resources (37.2% to 23.3%) and that it was still a useful cataloguing code (75.5% to 17.5%)

Harden (2012) found that student cataloguers, trained briefly in A.A.C.R. created records more closely aligned with R.D.A. than A.A.C.R. if they did not consult rules

Research

Musavi (1986) studied reception of the second edition of A.A.C.R. six years after its implementation: Only 55% of cataloguers agreed that it was an

improvement, 33% agreed that it made cataloguing easier, 34% agreed that it made cataloguing more efficient; 71% agreed that there should be no successor till at least the year 2000

Research

Social sciences are constantly revising their standards Accounting:

Changed from Generally Accepted Accounting Principles to International Financial Reporting Standards

Psychiatry: Each edition of the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of

Mental Disorders creates new pathologies, eliminates pathologies, reconfigures relationships between disorders

Lexicography: Etymology and definitions become more precise and

distinct Library science

Terminology

R.D.A. uses different terms to A.A.C.R.: “Element” for “Area” “Access point” for “Heading” “Authorised access point” for “Main entry” “Variant access point” for “Added entry” “Preferred title for the work” for “Uniform title” “Creator” for “Author”, etc. “Carrier type” for “Specific material designation”

Historical context

RDA should be considered as an evolution of cataloguing practice: Rules for the Compilation of the Catalogue / by

Anthony Panizzi (1841) Rules of a Printed Dictionary Catalogue / by Charles

Ammi Cutter (1876) Subsequent editions: 1889; 1891; 1904

A.L.A. Cataloguing Rules (1908) Subsequent editions: 1941; 1949

Rules for Descriptive Cataloguing in the Library of Congress (1949)

Anglo-American Cataloguing Rules (1967) Anglo-American Cataloguing Rules, 2nd ed. (1978)

Major revisions: 1988; 1998; 2002

Historical context

The successor to A.A.C.R.2 was originally going to be called A.A.C.R.3 Early in development, the decision was made to

fundamentally reconsider the cataloguing code rather than just substantially revise it

The cataloguing code needed more than a revision of the current code A.A.C.R., second edition, originally stated that it is “a

cardinal principle ... that the description ... should be based ... on the chapter dealing with the class of materials to which that item belongs” and that “the starting point for description is the physical form of the item in hand”

Historical context

Rules have continued to evolve: Transcription becomes more comprehensive:

A.A.C.R. allows the omission of the statement of authorship if it matched in form the heading of the author A.A.C.R.2 requires the statement of responsibility in all cases

A.A.C.R.2 requires the abbreviation in edition statements of ordinal numbers and the word “edition” R.D.A. requires edition statements to be transcribed as they

appear

Authors are as they appear to be: A.A.C.R. requires authors using pseudonyms to be

entered under their real names A.A.C.R.2 requires the use of bibliographic identities

A.A.C.R.2 requires that fictitious authorship be attributed to the actual author R.D.A. requires that fictitious entities be treated as real

Historical context

Rules have continued to evolve: Prescribed sources of information expand:

A.A.C.R. requires brackets around publication information not on the title page A.A.C.R.2 allows publication information taken from anywhere in

the resource A.A.C.R.2 requires brackets around statements of

responsibility not on the title page R.D.A. allows statements of responsibility taken from anywhere

in the resource

Major goals

RDA is designed to be more international It removes the Anglo-American focus on certain

aspects of the rules It allows for cataloguing agencies to record data as

appropriate for their users It is intended to be used by more constituents than

just libraries RDA is designed to be better suited to non-book

material It reflects the acquisition by libraries of content in

many formats It eliminates the fundamental division of works

based on the carrier

Major goals

RDA is designed for computer catalogues Information is not abbreviated to conserve space Different types of information are different elements

(e.g., dates of copyright, distribution, manufacture formerly could be used in place of dates of publication; these are now separate elements)

Information that does not appear on the item is recorded in notes rather than supplied

RDA is designed to be more intelligible to users Descriptive information is not abbreviated (e.g.,

<illustrations> rather than <ill.>) Latin abbreviations are not used (e.g., <[publisher

not identified]> rather than <[s.n.]>)

Major changes

Content type, carrier type, and media type are recorded for all resources The general material designation is eliminated

The list of general material designations is a mixture of classes of material, forms of carrier, physical formats, and notations

R.D.A. separates the content from the carrier Content type is the form of communication through which

a work is expressed Carrier type is the format of storage medium and housing

of the carrier Media type is the general type of intermediation device

needed to access the content of the resource

Major changes

Relationships are emphasised Relationships exist at different levels:

Among works, expressions, manifestations, items Among persons, families, corporate bodies Between works, expressions, manifestations, items, and

persons, families, corporate bodies Relationship designators in access points allow for

searching and sorting based on relationships Previously, relationships were recorded only in

notes, with added entries made Added entries without relationship designators prevented

users from limiting results by the relationship they desired

Major changes

Descriptive information is not abbreviated Abbreviations are not used for non-transcribed

elements Measurements (size, duration) are abbreviated

No abbreviations in transcribed elements (edition statement, etc.)

The “rule of three” is eliminated All authors, etc., are recorded, with an option to omit and

provide a summary of omission Latin abbreviations s.l. and s.n. are eliminated

[Place of publication not identified] and [publisher not identified] are used

Major changes

Descriptive information is recorded as it appears Information may be taken from anywhere in the

resource Inaccuracies are transcribed without interpolation

Corrected titles are added as variant titles If necessary, a note is made correcting the inaccuracy

Statements of responsibility include titles of honour, affiliations, etc.

Publication information is recorded as it appears No omission of geographic jurisdiction No omission of terms of incorporation for publishers, etc. Arabic numerals are not substituted for roman numerals

in dates Dates may be recorded in both arabic and roman numerals

Major changes

Different types of information are recorded separately Publisher, distributor, manufacturer are separate

elements Date of publication is mandatory

Dates of manufacture, dates of distribution, copyright dates are separate elements and can not be recorded in place of dates of publication

Major changes

Information is recorded logically Information not on the resource is given in notes

rather than supplied Content, etc., is recorded in notes

Illustrations comprising the entirety of a volume are no longer recorded as physical description

Information is recorded to allow sharing Rules are intended to allow for minimal manipulation

by cataloguers Information recorded is not dependent on the

cataloguing agency Publication information is recorded irrespective of where

the cataloguing agency is located

M.A.R.C. changes

Field 245 subfield $h is replaced with fields for content type, carrier type, media type Field 336: Content type

Controlled vocabulary; requires a term or a code Field 337: Media type

Controlled vocabulary; requires a term or a code Field 338: Carrier type

Controlled vocabulary; requires a term or a code

Field 260 is replaced with field 264 Second indicator represents function (production,

publication, distribution, manufacture, copyright notice)

Questions?

Theoretical basis

R.D.A., unlike A.A.C.R., was developed based on a theoretical framework

The International Federation of Library Associations and Institutions has released frameworks for what catalogues should do: Functional Requirements of Bibliographic Records

(1998, amended 2009) Functional Requirements for Authority Data (2009) Functional Requirements for Subject Authority Data

(2010) Statement of International Cataloguing Principles

(2009) expounds general principles of catalogues

Theoretical basis

The principles of the Statement of International Cataloguing Principles are: Convenience of the user Common usage Representation Accuracy Sufficiency and necessity Significance Economy Consistency and standardisation Integration

Theoretical basis

The user tasks associated with the Functional Requirements of Bibliographic Records are: Find

Find resources that correspond to search criteria Identify

Confirm that the resource corresponds to the one sought Distinguish between two similar resources

Select Select a resource that is appropriate to their needs

Obtain Acquire or access the resource

Navigate (unofficial) Discover works and attributes related to the given

resource

Theoretical basis

The user tasks associated with the Functional Requirements for Authority Data are: Find

Find entities that correspond to search criteria Identify

Confirm that the entity matches the one sought Distinguish between two similar entities

Contextualise Identify relationships between different entities Clarify the contexts of attributes for an entity

Justify Understand the choice of preferred access point

Theoretical basis

The user tasks associated with the Functional Requirements of Subject Authority Data are: Find

Find subjects that correspond to search criteria Identify

Confirm that the subject corresponds to the one sought Distinguish between two similar subjects

Select Select a subject that is appropriate to their needs

Explore Explore relationships between subjects

Theoretical basis for RDA

FRBR entities are in three groups: Products of intellectual or artistic endeavour

Work: a distinct creation Expression: the realisation of a work Manifestation: the physical embodiment of an expression Item: a single exemplar of a manifestation

Entities responsible for intellectual or artistic content Person: an individual Family: persons related by birth, marriage, adoption, etc. Corporate body: an organisation or group of individuals

Subjects of intellectual or artistic endeavour Concept: an abstract notion Object: a material thing Event: an action or occurrence Place: a location


FRBR entities have attributes: Works:

Title of the work Form of work Date of the work Other distinguishing characteristic Intended termination Intended audience Context for the work [Attributes for specific forms]

Expressions: Title of the expression Form of expression Date of expression


FRBR entities have attributes: Expressions:

Language of expression Other distinguishing characteristic Extensibility of expression Revisability of expression Extent of the expression Summarization of content Context for the expression Critical response to the expression Use restrictions on the expression Sequencing pattern (serial) Expected regularity of issue (serial) Expected frequency of issue (serial)


FRBR entities have attributes: Expressions:

[Attributes for specific forms] Manifestations:

Title of the manifestation Statement of responsibility Edition/issue designation Place of publication/distribution Publisher/distributor Date of publication/distribution Fabricator/manufacturer Series statement Form of carrier Extent of the carrier


FRBR entities have attributes: Manifestations:

Items: Item identifier


FRBR entities have attributes: Items:
