What is cataloging?
•Bibliographic description + classification = cataloging
![Page 10: Cataloging with a Dash of RDA - Mount Saint Mary Collegefaculty.msmc.edu/garofalo/docs/cataloging_dash_rda2016.pdf · 2016-06-09 · Cataloging with a Dash of RDA Part one of Catalogers](https://reader034.fdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022050421/5f906378f452f00fe62e1b5a/html5/thumbnails/10.jpg)
Bibliographic description
![Page 11: Cataloging with a Dash of RDA - Mount Saint Mary Collegefaculty.msmc.edu/garofalo/docs/cataloging_dash_rda2016.pdf · 2016-06-09 · Cataloging with a Dash of RDA Part one of Catalogers](https://reader034.fdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022050421/5f906378f452f00fe62e1b5a/html5/thumbnails/11.jpg)
Descriptive cataloging
• Deals with the physical nature of the work• Who is the creator? What is the
title?
• How many illustrations? Number of discs?
![Page 12: Cataloging with a Dash of RDA - Mount Saint Mary Collegefaculty.msmc.edu/garofalo/docs/cataloging_dash_rda2016.pdf · 2016-06-09 · Cataloging with a Dash of RDA Part one of Catalogers](https://reader034.fdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022050421/5f906378f452f00fe62e1b5a/html5/thumbnails/12.jpg)
Descriptive cataloging
•Describes and identifies the item
•Provides access points to locate item
![Page 13: Cataloging with a Dash of RDA - Mount Saint Mary Collegefaculty.msmc.edu/garofalo/docs/cataloging_dash_rda2016.pdf · 2016-06-09 · Cataloging with a Dash of RDA Part one of Catalogers](https://reader034.fdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022050421/5f906378f452f00fe62e1b5a/html5/thumbnails/13.jpg)
Classification
![Page 14: Cataloging with a Dash of RDA - Mount Saint Mary Collegefaculty.msmc.edu/garofalo/docs/cataloging_dash_rda2016.pdf · 2016-06-09 · Cataloging with a Dash of RDA Part one of Catalogers](https://reader034.fdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022050421/5f906378f452f00fe62e1b5a/html5/thumbnails/14.jpg)
Subject analysis
• Deals with the intellectual nature of the work• One classification number so
it exists in one place on the shelf
• Many subject headings to provide multiple access points
![Page 15: Cataloging with a Dash of RDA - Mount Saint Mary Collegefaculty.msmc.edu/garofalo/docs/cataloging_dash_rda2016.pdf · 2016-06-09 · Cataloging with a Dash of RDA Part one of Catalogers](https://reader034.fdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022050421/5f906378f452f00fe62e1b5a/html5/thumbnails/15.jpg)
Subject analysis
•Discovering the subject the item is concerned with
•Locating subject access points
![Page 16: Cataloging with a Dash of RDA - Mount Saint Mary Collegefaculty.msmc.edu/garofalo/docs/cataloging_dash_rda2016.pdf · 2016-06-09 · Cataloging with a Dash of RDA Part one of Catalogers](https://reader034.fdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022050421/5f906378f452f00fe62e1b5a/html5/thumbnails/16.jpg)
Access points?•Users locate information in the library catalog via access points
![Page 17: Cataloging with a Dash of RDA - Mount Saint Mary Collegefaculty.msmc.edu/garofalo/docs/cataloging_dash_rda2016.pdf · 2016-06-09 · Cataloging with a Dash of RDA Part one of Catalogers](https://reader034.fdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022050421/5f906378f452f00fe62e1b5a/html5/thumbnails/17.jpg)
Access points
•The more access points provided = easier for user to find items
![Page 18: Cataloging with a Dash of RDA - Mount Saint Mary Collegefaculty.msmc.edu/garofalo/docs/cataloging_dash_rda2016.pdf · 2016-06-09 · Cataloging with a Dash of RDA Part one of Catalogers](https://reader034.fdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022050421/5f906378f452f00fe62e1b5a/html5/thumbnails/18.jpg)
What are access points?•Title
•Creator
•Subjects

Access points and keywords
•Keyword searching ≠ a substitute for access points
![Page 20: Cataloging with a Dash of RDA - Mount Saint Mary Collegefaculty.msmc.edu/garofalo/docs/cataloging_dash_rda2016.pdf · 2016-06-09 · Cataloging with a Dash of RDA Part one of Catalogers](https://reader034.fdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022050421/5f906378f452f00fe62e1b5a/html5/thumbnails/20.jpg)
Access points and MARC
• Once access points and main entry are determined, completing a MARC record is less complicated
• Access points are chosen from approved lists (authorized headings)
![Page 21: Cataloging with a Dash of RDA - Mount Saint Mary Collegefaculty.msmc.edu/garofalo/docs/cataloging_dash_rda2016.pdf · 2016-06-09 · Cataloging with a Dash of RDA Part one of Catalogers](https://reader034.fdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022050421/5f906378f452f00fe62e1b5a/html5/thumbnails/21.jpg)

MARC history
•Developed in the 1960s for English language monographs
•Evolved to handle new formats
![Page 23: Cataloging with a Dash of RDA - Mount Saint Mary Collegefaculty.msmc.edu/garofalo/docs/cataloging_dash_rda2016.pdf · 2016-06-09 · Cataloging with a Dash of RDA Part one of Catalogers](https://reader034.fdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022050421/5f906378f452f00fe62e1b5a/html5/thumbnails/23.jpg)
What does MARC mean?
•Machine-readable = a machine (i.e. a computer) can read and interpret the data
• Cataloging record = a bibliographic record (description of item, access points, classification or call number)
![Page 24: Cataloging with a Dash of RDA - Mount Saint Mary Collegefaculty.msmc.edu/garofalo/docs/cataloging_dash_rda2016.pdf · 2016-06-09 · Cataloging with a Dash of RDA Part one of Catalogers](https://reader034.fdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022050421/5f906378f452f00fe62e1b5a/html5/thumbnails/24.jpg)
What is a MARC record?• A record is a collection of fields
• A field contains a single unit of data within a record
• A field may have one or more subfields
• A tag is a three digit code identifying each field
• Each field ends with a field terminator ¶
• Each subfield is preceded by a field delimitor sign followed by a single character ‡
• Each record has the same components: leader, record directory, control fields, fixed fields, and variable fields
![Page 25: Cataloging with a Dash of RDA - Mount Saint Mary Collegefaculty.msmc.edu/garofalo/docs/cataloging_dash_rda2016.pdf · 2016-06-09 · Cataloging with a Dash of RDA Part one of Catalogers](https://reader034.fdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022050421/5f906378f452f00fe62e1b5a/html5/thumbnails/25.jpg)

MARC anatomy
• A MARC record can have up to 999 fields
• The majority of those fields are variable in length
• The MARC record is the standard upon which library automation has been built
![Page 27: Cataloging with a Dash of RDA - Mount Saint Mary Collegefaculty.msmc.edu/garofalo/docs/cataloging_dash_rda2016.pdf · 2016-06-09 · Cataloging with a Dash of RDA Part one of Catalogers](https://reader034.fdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022050421/5f906378f452f00fe62e1b5a/html5/thumbnails/27.jpg)

MARC records are parallel
![Page 31: Cataloging with a Dash of RDA - Mount Saint Mary Collegefaculty.msmc.edu/garofalo/docs/cataloging_dash_rda2016.pdf · 2016-06-09 · Cataloging with a Dash of RDA Part one of Catalogers](https://reader034.fdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022050421/5f906378f452f00fe62e1b5a/html5/thumbnails/31.jpg)
MARC’s parallel structure
•The fields requiring authority control are the fields with parallel tag structure
•1xx, 4xx, 6xx, 7xx, 8xx
• For instance, for personal names the field ends in 00• Main entry (1xx) that is a
personal name (x00) means field 100
• Subject heading (6xx) that is a personal name (x00) means field 600
![Page 32: Cataloging with a Dash of RDA - Mount Saint Mary Collegefaculty.msmc.edu/garofalo/docs/cataloging_dash_rda2016.pdf · 2016-06-09 · Cataloging with a Dash of RDA Part one of Catalogers](https://reader034.fdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022050421/5f906378f452f00fe62e1b5a/html5/thumbnails/32.jpg)
Parallel content or structure
• X00 personal names 100, 600, 700
• X10 corporate names 110, 610, 710
• X11 meeting names 111, 611, 711
• X30 uniform titles 130
• X40 bibliographic titles 240, 440
• X50 topical terms 650
Title Creator Subject Added Series

Using parallel structure• If the subject (6xx) is a person (John Adams) the tag is 600
• If the subject is a corporation (ibm) the tag is 610
• If the subject is a topic (cars) the tag is 650
• If the subject is a place (United states) the tag is 651
• An added entry or access point (7xx) for a creator(personal name) will have a tag of 700

Classification
![Page 36: Cataloging with a Dash of RDA - Mount Saint Mary Collegefaculty.msmc.edu/garofalo/docs/cataloging_dash_rda2016.pdf · 2016-06-09 · Cataloging with a Dash of RDA Part one of Catalogers](https://reader034.fdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022050421/5f906378f452f00fe62e1b5a/html5/thumbnails/36.jpg)
Classification in libraries• A system of arranging the collection
on the shelves which provides formal and orderly access
• A means of bringing together related items in a useful sequence from general to specific
• A way to lead the user to the needed items
![Page 37: Cataloging with a Dash of RDA - Mount Saint Mary Collegefaculty.msmc.edu/garofalo/docs/cataloging_dash_rda2016.pdf · 2016-06-09 · Cataloging with a Dash of RDA Part one of Catalogers](https://reader034.fdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022050421/5f906378f452f00fe62e1b5a/html5/thumbnails/37.jpg)
Call number• May have a location or collection
prefix – REF, DVD, j
• Next element is classification number –736 or 917.4 or pz4 or RT635
• Next element is the cutter number, an alpha-numeric related to the main entry – H74 or B25
• May include a date or copy or accession number as final element
![Page 38: Cataloging with a Dash of RDA - Mount Saint Mary Collegefaculty.msmc.edu/garofalo/docs/cataloging_dash_rda2016.pdf · 2016-06-09 · Cataloging with a Dash of RDA Part one of Catalogers](https://reader034.fdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022050421/5f906378f452f00fe62e1b5a/html5/thumbnails/38.jpg)
LC vs. DDC
• LC• Lack of consistency among
schedules
• Too large for an individual to fully master
• No single index
• Too complex for children’s collections
• DDC• Schedule consistency
• Not as complex as LC
• Has a single relative index
• Numbers can be expanded as needed
![Page 39: Cataloging with a Dash of RDA - Mount Saint Mary Collegefaculty.msmc.edu/garofalo/docs/cataloging_dash_rda2016.pdf · 2016-06-09 · Cataloging with a Dash of RDA Part one of Catalogers](https://reader034.fdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022050421/5f906378f452f00fe62e1b5a/html5/thumbnails/39.jpg)
DDC
•Broad•Groups works under main divisions and subdivisions•originally enumerative but has added some aspects of a faceted classification
![Page 40: Cataloging with a Dash of RDA - Mount Saint Mary Collegefaculty.msmc.edu/garofalo/docs/cataloging_dash_rda2016.pdf · 2016-06-09 · Cataloging with a Dash of RDA Part one of Catalogers](https://reader034.fdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022050421/5f906378f452f00fe62e1b5a/html5/thumbnails/40.jpg)
Basic DDC rules• Class first by subject, then by form
• Class where it will be most useful
• Place it in the most specific subject division that will contain it, rather than with the general topic
• If it deals with 2 or 3 subjects, place it with the predominant subject or the one treated first
• If it deals with more than 3 subjects, place it in the general class that combines all 3 subjects
![Page 41: Cataloging with a Dash of RDA - Mount Saint Mary Collegefaculty.msmc.edu/garofalo/docs/cataloging_dash_rda2016.pdf · 2016-06-09 · Cataloging with a Dash of RDA Part one of Catalogers](https://reader034.fdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022050421/5f906378f452f00fe62e1b5a/html5/thumbnails/41.jpg)
Nothing is perfect• Any classification scheme is limited
• DDC places language separate from literature
• History is classed separately from social sciences in DDC
• Reorganization causes problems• New numbers for new concepts
• Moving concepts to more logical locations
• Purchased cataloging only as good as the vendor’s catalogers
![Page 42: Cataloging with a Dash of RDA - Mount Saint Mary Collegefaculty.msmc.edu/garofalo/docs/cataloging_dash_rda2016.pdf · 2016-06-09 · Cataloging with a Dash of RDA Part one of Catalogers](https://reader034.fdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022050421/5f906378f452f00fe62e1b5a/html5/thumbnails/42.jpg)
DDC background• Oldest and most widely used classification
system in usa
• Allows for expansion to cover aspects of general subjects
• The more specific the item being cataloged is the longer the number
• Long numbers are more accurate but also unwieldy and impractical
![Page 43: Cataloging with a Dash of RDA - Mount Saint Mary Collegefaculty.msmc.edu/garofalo/docs/cataloging_dash_rda2016.pdf · 2016-06-09 · Cataloging with a Dash of RDA Part one of Catalogers](https://reader034.fdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022050421/5f906378f452f00fe62e1b5a/html5/thumbnails/43.jpg)

DDC basics
• incorporates mnemonic devices transferred from one class to another• -03 at the end of a class
number of any length indicates a dictionary of the subject at hand
• 210.103 a dictionary of philosophy of religion
• arranges subjects from the general to the specific
![Page 45: Cataloging with a Dash of RDA - Mount Saint Mary Collegefaculty.msmc.edu/garofalo/docs/cataloging_dash_rda2016.pdf · 2016-06-09 · Cataloging with a Dash of RDA Part one of Catalogers](https://reader034.fdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022050421/5f906378f452f00fe62e1b5a/html5/thumbnails/45.jpg)
DDC basics• Primary arrangement is by discipline
• Any specific topic can appear in a number of disciplines
• Aspects of a topic are brought together in the relative index
• Never assign a classification
number simply taken from the
relative index
• Always check the number in
the schedules before using it
![Page 46: Cataloging with a Dash of RDA - Mount Saint Mary Collegefaculty.msmc.edu/garofalo/docs/cataloging_dash_rda2016.pdf · 2016-06-09 · Cataloging with a Dash of RDA Part one of Catalogers](https://reader034.fdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022050421/5f906378f452f00fe62e1b5a/html5/thumbnails/46.jpg)
DDC basics--Notes• Notes are very helpful
• Tell what’s at a class number
• Tell what’s found at other class numbers
• Identify topics that are “standing room” (topics that don’t have enough works about them to have their own number); computers started at 001.6 then went to 004-006
• Notes also• Explain changes in
tables and schedules
• Instruct in number building
• Prescribe precedence order
• Explain options

Number building?
• A way to expand existing numbers in the schedule
• In tables these numbers where number building can occur are preceded by a “-” to indicate they cannot stand alone (omit the dash when attaching the number)
• A book about pet hamsters
• the base number for pet mammals is 636.9 Other mammals
• The schedules say add part of the number for hamsters (599.356) to the base number (636.9)
• So the number is 636.9356

• Entire field of knowledge • divided into main classes
• roughly equal to academic disciplines or areas of study
• Denoted by single capital letters

LC classification
• Scope notes• Explain what the classification
covers
• Used when similar topics occur in different areas
• Explanatory “see” notes • Used when a topic logically belongs
in one division, but is covered elsewhere
• Designated by the use of “For”

Authorities
•maintain a controlled vocabulary
•provide consistent, verified access points (headings)
•designed to aid in locating items

What is authority control?
•establishing the form of the name
•using that form of the name

Authority control is…• A tool
• used by librarians to achieve consistency among bibliographic records
• provides a linking framework for related names and subjects in a catalog
![Page 68: Cataloging with a Dash of RDA - Mount Saint Mary Collegefaculty.msmc.edu/garofalo/docs/cataloging_dash_rda2016.pdf · 2016-06-09 · Cataloging with a Dash of RDA Part one of Catalogers](https://reader034.fdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022050421/5f906378f452f00fe62e1b5a/html5/thumbnails/68.jpg)
How is authority control used?
•Mark Twain or Samuel Clemens?• Assures that his most commonly known name in its most frequently used form is used• all of his works can be efficiently retrieved together
• Ensures that there is linkage from Clemens to Twain• enable an end user to find the needed information
![Page 69: Cataloging with a Dash of RDA - Mount Saint Mary Collegefaculty.msmc.edu/garofalo/docs/cataloging_dash_rda2016.pdf · 2016-06-09 · Cataloging with a Dash of RDA Part one of Catalogers](https://reader034.fdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022050421/5f906378f452f00fe62e1b5a/html5/thumbnails/69.jpg)
Authority control terminology
• controlled vocabulary
• standardized form of a name or term• authorized, authoritative, or established form
• also called the heading
• variant forms of the standardized heading are traced (i.e. recorded)• variants are often called see from tracings
• they are used in the catalog to direct the user from the variant to the standardized heading
• other standardized names and terms that are related to the standardized heading are also traced• often called see also from tracings
• they are used to direct the user from a closely related name or concept to the standardized heading
• note, related names and terms are themselves standardized forms

More authority terminology• Authority file
• A file containing authority records
• Does not usually display to the catalog user
• See reference• Directs a user from an unauthorized variant form of a heading to
the authorized form
• Dinosauria see Dinosaurs
• See also reference• Directs a user from one authorized heading to another, related
authorized heading.
• Diseases see also Pathology

What if there’s no authority control?
•Symptoms include:•dead-end records
•no author or keyword linkages
•the lack of finding well-known titles

•More difficult for users to find things
•No links between variant access points

What is RDA?•A cataloging standard
• A content standard • To describe relationships
• Between related resources• Among those who created the resource
• Content independent (i.e. not book-centric)• Focus on resource discovery•Designed for the digital world to describe a resource
• to be responsive• for extensibility (takes future growth into consideration)• for adaptability (who knows what will happen in the future?)

•Different framework
•New vocabulary
•New concepts
•“Take what you see”
•Focus on the user

Changes ….
• in catalog records
• conceptual changes in access points (headings)
• No more abbreviations –> words are spelled out
• OPAC display • Not all library management systems can handle them
• Eventually these fields will be displayed

What didn’t change with RDA?
• A lot!
•Much of what you are used to with AACR2 is carried over into RDA virtually unchanged
•RDA cataloging continues to use both MARC and ISBD
