RDA Test at LC
Module 1: Overview
What RDA Is;
Structure
![Page 2: RDA Test at LC Module 1: Overview](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062301/56813fae550346895daa941d/html5/thumbnails/2.jpg)
RDA Test at LC: June 2010 -- Module 1 2
RDA is successor to AACR2
but is not AACR3 -- RDA is different from AACR2
![Page 3: RDA Test at LC Module 1: Overview](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062301/56813fae550346895daa941d/html5/thumbnails/3.jpg)
RDA Test at LC: June 2010 -- Module 1 3
RDA based on IFLA’s international models and principles
Functional Requirements for Bibliographic Records (FRBR; 1998)
Functional Requirements for Authority Data (FRAD; 2009)
Statement of International Cataloguing Principles (ICP; 2009)
![Page 4: RDA Test at LC Module 1: Overview](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062301/56813fae550346895daa941d/html5/thumbnails/4.jpg)
RDA Test at LC: June 2010 -- Module 1 4
Addresses user tasks
FRBR: Find Identify Select Obtain
FRAD: Find Identify Contextualize Justify
• ICP’s highest principle = “convenience of the user”

RDA Test at LC: June 2010 -- Module 1 5
Is a content standard
Not a display standard (as was AACR2) Does have appendix D for ISBD and
appendix E for AACR2 style for access points
LC will continue using ISBD punctuation and AACR2 style for access points (also see LCPS 1.7)
Not an encoding standard LC will use MARC 21
![Page 6: RDA Test at LC Module 1: Overview](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062301/56813fae550346895daa941d/html5/thumbnails/6.jpg)
RDA Test at LC: June 2010 -- Module 1 6
For wider scope of resources
Response to what’s being acquired in libraries More elements for non-printed text resources More elements for non-text resources More elements for unpublished resources
Compatible with specialist manuals (DACS, CCO, DCRM(B) etc.)
![Page 7: RDA Test at LC Module 1: Overview](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062301/56813fae550346895daa941d/html5/thumbnails/7.jpg)
RDA Test at LC: June 2010 -- Module 1 7
Includes authority data instructions
Based on attributes and relationships in FRAD
Authorized/variant access points and elements will for now be documented in authority records
![Page 8: RDA Test at LC Module 1: Overview](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062301/56813fae550346895daa941d/html5/thumbnails/8.jpg)
RDA Test at LC: June 2010 -- Module 1 8
Has controlled vocabularies
Only a few closed: content, media, and carrier types; mode of issuance; etc. If term missing, tell PSD
Most are open: cataloger can supply term if needed term not in list Tell PSD which term used
Some vocabularies being registered on the Web
Training document #1 has list
![Page 9: RDA Test at LC Module 1: Overview](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062301/56813fae550346895daa941d/html5/thumbnails/9.jpg)
RDA Test at LC: June 2010 -- Module 1 9
What’s changing?
Changes in technology Impact on descriptive/access data
book catalogs card catalogs OPACs next generation
Move from classes of materials to elements and values (more controlled vocabularies)
Move from individual library to international audience
![Page 10: RDA Test at LC Module 1: Overview](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062301/56813fae550346895daa941d/html5/thumbnails/10.jpg)
RDA Test at LC: June 2010 -- Module 1 10
Internet
Catalogs are no longer in isolation Global access to data
Virtual International Authority File (www.viaf.org)
Integrate bibliographic data with wider Internet environment Share data beyond institutions
![Page 11: RDA Test at LC Module 1: Overview](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062301/56813fae550346895daa941d/html5/thumbnails/11.jpg)
RDA Test at LC: June 2010 -- Module 1 11
RDA developed for the future
Full advantage of RDA-based data: When authority and bibliographic data reside
in separate “packages” and records assembled when needed
When access points (if needed) can be assembled “on the fly”
When data for works and expressions can be reused for multiple manifestations
![Page 12: RDA Test at LC Module 1: Overview](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062301/56813fae550346895daa941d/html5/thumbnails/12.jpg)
RDA Test at LC: June 2010 -- Module 1 12
RDA appendices for transition
Appendix D mappings: ISBD to RDA - few changes from current
practice MARC 21 bibliographic format to RDA
Appendix E: Presentation and punctuation of access
points - few changes from current practice MARC 21 authority format mapping to RDA

RDA Structure
General introduction Identifying elements (entities and their
attributes) Ch. 1-7: work, expression, manifestation, item Ch. 8-16: person, family, corporate body, place
Relationships: ch. 17-22, 24-32 Appendices Glossary
![Page 15: RDA Test at LC Module 1: Overview](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062301/56813fae550346895daa941d/html5/thumbnails/15.jpg)
RDA Test at LC: June 2010 -- Module 1 15
RDA structure Not by class of materials: no separate
chapters for books, printed music, etc. Overarching principles applicable to all
Basic goals: identify and relate (from FRBR/FRAD user tasks and ICP)
Chapters: separate elements for goals Assemble those elements when need
authorized access points (instructions at end of chapters 6, 9-11)
![Page 16: RDA Test at LC Module 1: Overview](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062301/56813fae550346895daa941d/html5/thumbnails/16.jpg)
RDA Test at LC: June 2010 -- Module 1 16
Not to be read linearly Using an online tool:
“Jumping in” via keyword searches Going directly to elements from Table of
Contents (ToC) pane Following links Seeing some duplication of content (needed
for context) Separate RDA Toolkit training/demos Can use Training documents #3 and #4
to go to specific instructions

Core elements
Based on attributes mandatory for a national level record in FRBR and FRAD
Core elements (RDA 0.6): Some: always if applicable and available Others: depends upon situation = Core if … Agency can add others
LC’s core elements: Training document #4
![Page 27: RDA Test at LC Module 1: Overview](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062301/56813fae550346895daa941d/html5/thumbnails/27.jpg)
RDA Test at LC: June 2010 -- Module 1 27
“Core-ness” identified at element in RDA Toolkit
If always a core element (if applicable and available), label “CORE ELEMENT” appears below element name
If use as a core element depends upon the situation, the label “CORE ELEMENT” is followed by an explanation of the situation
If additional element selected by LC as core, an LCPS will say “CORE ELEMENT FOR LC” with or without an explanation
![Page 28: RDA Test at LC Module 1: Overview](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062301/56813fae550346895daa941d/html5/thumbnails/28.jpg)
RDA Test at LC: June 2010 -- Module 1 28
Core elements’ reminder (RDA 0.6)
Include all the core elements that are applicable and readily ascertainable
Don’t do research just to give a core element unless RDA instruction or LCPS says to do so
![Page 29: RDA Test at LC Module 1: Overview](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062301/56813fae550346895daa941d/html5/thumbnails/29.jpg)
