Whether a library catalogs its own materials or not, librarians
still need to have some understanding of RDA. Designed to be used
by academic, public, and school librarians, this is the perfect
introduction. RDA (Resource Description and Access) was released in
March 2013 and catalogers are busy trying to understand and
implement the new protocols. This book will help. Unlike the RDA
training materials prepared for seasoned catalogers by the Library
of Congress and others, the The RDA Workbook: Learning the Basics
of Resource Description and Access uses tried-and-true methods to
make RDA clear even to those who have little or no previous
cataloging knowledge. The workbook can be used by an individual or
to teach others in staff training sessions, presentations, or LIS
courses. It discusses the theoretical framework of the cataloging
code; details the steps necessary to create a bibliographic for
books, videos, and other formats; and shows librarians how to read
and interrupt authority records for persons, families, corporate
bodies, works, and expressions. Finally, the workbook suggests
strategies for implementing RDA. Focuses on the new RDA rules and
conventions and their implementation, particularly in smaller
libraries where there are no professional catalogers Presents FRBR
and other aspects of RDA's theoretical framework in understandable
terms Features a step-by-step guide to creating bibliographic
records for print and electronic books, videos, and other formats
Includes quick guides, exercises, a glossary of terms, and a list
of additional resources
