RDA: Resource Description and Access A New Cataloging Standard for a Digital Future Jennifer Bowen Cornell University May 16, 2006

2 My topics today Why a new standard? RDA Goals RDA Content Issues in developing RDA Preparing for RDA

3 Why a new standard? Simplify rules Encourage use as a content standard for metadata schema Encourage international applicability Provide more consistency Address current problems Principle-based Build on cataloger’s judgment Encourage application of FRBR/FRAR

4 Why not just keep revising AACR2? AACR

1978…When this car and AACR2 were new…

6 International developments IFLA’s Functional Requirements for Bibliographic Records (FRBR) Updating the Paris Principles (IME ICC) IFLA Meeting of Experts on an International Cataloguing Code

7 Standards and more standards… Communication Standards MARC UNIMARC MARC 21 MODS/MADS MARCXML XML dtd’s Next generation? Metadata Standards Dublin Core MPEG 7 VRA EAD ISBD (also a content/display standard)

RDA Goals…

9 RDA will be… A new standard for resource description and access Designed for the digital environment Developed as a web-based product Description and access of all digital resources (and analog) Resulting records usable in the digital environment (Internet, Web OPACs, etc.)

10 RDA will be… Multinational content standard providing bibliographic description and access for a variety of media and formats collected by libraries today Developed for use in English language environment; it can also be used in other language communities Independent of the format (e.g., MARC 21) used to communicate information

11 RDA will… Support FRBR user tasks Find, identify, select, obtain Enable users of library catalogues, etc. to find and use resources appropriate to their information needs

12 Who develops and supports RDA? Committee of Principals AACR Fund Trustees/ Publishers Joint Steering Committee ALA CC:DA ACOCBLCCCCILIPLC

13 JSC, Editor, Project Manager

RDA Content…

15 RDA structure: A work in progress! AACR2 RDA – Draft Arrangement Part I: Description Part II: Access Part I: Description Part II: Relationships Part III: Access Point Control

16 RDA structure: A work in progress! AACR2 RDA – New Arrangement! Part I: Description Part II: Access Part I: Description Part II: Relationships Part III: Access Point Control Part A Part B

17 “New” Part A (formerly part I) 0. Introduction 1. General guidelines for resource description 2. Identification of the resource 3. Technical description - FRBR “Select” 4. Content description - FRBR “Select” 5. Terms of availability - FRBR “Obtain” 6. Item-specific information

18 “New” Part A cont. (formerly part II) Relationships between FRBR Group 1 entities Works Expressions Manifestations Items Relationships between FRBR Group 1 and Group 2 entities Persons Corporate bodies Families Chapters 6-9(?) - FRBR “Find” Simplify choice of primary access point

19 Relationships – new terminology AACR2 terms Heading Main Entry Added Entry Uniform title RDA terms Access point Primary Access point Secondary Access point Citation: Access point… For a work For an expression For a manifestation

20 “New” Part B” (formerly part III) General guidelines for Access point control Guidance from FRAR (“FRAD”) Authorized forms Persons, Families, Corporate bodies, Places Citations (“uniform titles”) for works, expressions Variant forms

21 RDA timeline May-Sept. 2006: Completion of draft of remainder of Part A (old part II), and constituency review Oct Apr. 2007: Completion of draft of Part B (old part III), and constituency review May-Sept. 2007: Completion of General Introduction, Appendices, and Glossary Mid-2008: First Release

The “Big Issues”

23 Continuity vs. change “Why didn’t you just throw out AACR2 and start over?” Keep the best of what we have Compatibility with existing records is essential!

24 Content vs. display RDA will be a content standard not a display standard RDA will contain new data elements, redefined elements New elements to replace the GMD Clarify definition of “notes” Retain relationships between elements RDA records can still be displayed in an ISBD display if desired

25 Transcription How important is data transcription to resource identification? Rare books, etc. – very important! Metadata communities – not! “Take what you see” Correction of inaccuracies Facilitating automated data capture

26 Content issues Terms for Content and Carrier RDA/ONIX framework for resource categorization JSC GMD/SMD Working Group Mandatory (“Required”) Elements Mapping Data Elements RDA/MARC 21 Dublin Core

27 Ongoing work Mode of Issuance Internationalization Persistent Identifiers and URLs Appendices Access Points for Families Examples Glossary

Preparing for RDA…

29 Coding RDA records in MARC 21 – and DC? Most RDA data elements can be incorporated into MARC 21 A few changes: New data elements to replace GMDs and SMDs Possibly some other modifications necessary to MARC 21

30 Considering ISBD punctuation RDA will establish a clear line of separation between the recording of data and the presentation of data ISBD punctuation not required in RDA, but instead is an option. Presentation information (e.g. ISBD punctuation) will appear in an appendix of RDA

31 Retrospective catalog maintenance? No - Significant changes to existing records will not be required Need for retrospective adjustments when integrating RDA and AACR2 records will be minimal

32 How will Cornell use the RDA product? As a stand-alone web product? Part of another product? Incorporated into cataloging module of ILS?) Participate in focus groups, market research, etc.
