RDA in MARC American Library Association July 2009 Sally H. McCallum Library of Congress

Overview  Good news  MARC changes  Process  Principles  Content, media, carrier types  Attributes for names and resources  Relationships  Other  Documentation

Good news  RDA was designed to be compatible with MARC 21  most libraries creating RDA data are currently using an ILS that imports/exports data in MARC 21

MARC Changes Process - Working Group  Everett Allgood - New York University and CC:DA Liaison  Corine Deliot - British Library  Rebecca Guenther - Library of Congress  Bill Leonard - Library and Archives Canada  Sally McCallum - Library of Congress  Marg Stewart - Library and Archives Canada and Joint Steering Committee Liaison  Martha Yee - UCLA Film and Television Archive  Rich Greene – OCLC  John Espley – VTLS  Reinhold Heuvelmann – Deutsche Nationalbibliothek  Rhonda Lawrence – UCLA  Kathy Glennan – University of Maryland  Bill Moen – University of North Texas, School of Library and Information Sciences

MARC Changes Process  MARBI paper from JSC in January 2008  Organized Working Group in early 2008  Worked from summaries of possible differences provided by the JSC liaison  Met every week via teleconference  Divided up the work – 25 items initially  Proposals  Discussion papers  No Change needed  Contractor analysis needed  RDA intent not yet clear  June 2008 – 4 Proposals, 5 Discussion Papers  January 2009 – 3 Proposals, 2 Discussion Papers  June 2009 – 3 Proposals, 3 Discussion Papers

MARC Changes Working principles  FRBR entities and RDA data  MARC 21 will continue to be used by diverse communities with different rules and data models – although RDA will be prominent Neutral concerning which types of records (authority, bibliographic, holdings) map to which FRBR entities Neutral and flexible with respect to enterprise database designs that ingest MARC data, but enabling enterprise use of any of the designs hypothesized by RDA

MARC Changes Working principles  Parsing data  Weigh parsing of data at point of data entry and possible increase in cataloging costs, against enhanced end user experience.  Consider the existing MARC Principles for parsing data: Categorical indexing or retrieval Special manipulation or formatting  Favor use of system-generated display labels based on a field tag or a subfield code, as is common already

MARC Changes Working principles  Coded values for RDA terms  RDA term lists are open ended and not meant to be closed and complete  Exactly aligning MARC code lists with RDA term lists is not necessary – but comparison and adjustment is useful

Content, media, and carrier types  RDA 6.10 content type RDA – “fundamental form of communication in which the content is expressed and the human sense through which it is intended to be perceived” E.g., still image, text, 3-dimensional form  RDA 3.2 media type RDA – “general type of intermediation device required to view, play, run, etc., the content of a resource” E.g., audio, microform  RDA 3.3 carrier type RDA – “format of the storage medium and housing of a carrier” E.g., audio disc, microform cassette  Open ended RDA term lists for each type

Content, media, and carrier types  Content type  MARC Leader/06 - must continue to use –Less granular than RDA –MARC LDR/06 code examples »e - cartographic material »f - manuscript cartographic material  New field use if want to record exact RDA terms $a Content type terms $2 Source –RDA term examples »cartographic dataset »cartographic image »cartographic moving image »cartographic tactile image »cartographic tactile three-dimensional form »cartographic three-dimensional form –336 ## $a cartographic dataset $2 rda

Content, media, and carrier types  Media type  MARC 007/00 – close match with RDA 007 provides coding for multiple facets of resource –MARC 007/00 code examples »h - microform »s - sound recording  New field use if want to record exact RDA terms and/or do not need to code additional facets of resource $a Media type term $2 Source –RDA term examples »microform »audio –337 ## $a microform $2 rda –337 ## $a audio $2 rda

Content, media, and carrier types  Carrier type  MARC 007/01 – close match with RDA 007 provides coding for multiple facets of resource –MARC 007/01 code examples »b - microfilm cartridge »d - sound disc  New field use if want to record exact RDA terms and do not need to code additional facets of resource $a Carrier type term $2 Source –RDA term examples »microform cartridge »audio disc –338 ## $a microfilm cartridge $2 rda –338 ## $a audio disc $2 rda

Attributes of names and resources  RDA specifies attributes that are currently included in headings (preferred access points) and additional ones from FRAD  Attributes of names persons, families, corporate bodies recorded in MARC “name” Authority record in heading or in separate field  Attributes of resources works and expressions recorded in MARC “name/title” Authority record (common model) or in Bibliographic record for work or expression (possible model) in heading or in separate field

Attributes of names (Authority format)  Dates: birth and death, period of activity, corporate establishment and termination, family  Access point: $d for persons and meetings  New 046 (Special coded dates)  Same field as in Bibliographic record with new subfields  Places: of birth, death, residence, associated with person or family, corporate headquarters  Access point: $c for meetings  New 370 (Associated place)  Address: of person or corporate body  New 371 (Address) Modeled on 720 from Bibliographic format  Activities: field of activity of person or corporate body, affiliation and occupation of person  Access point: $c for persons  New 372 (Field of activity)  New 373 (Affiliation)  New 374 (Occupation)  Gender  New 375 (Gender)  Families: type, hereditary title, prominent member  New 376 (Family information)  Language: of person or corporate body  New 378 (Associated language)

Attributes of names (Authority format)  Example 100 0# $aSpagna $c(Artist), $d ## $a Artist 046 ## $f1450 $g1528  Example 110 2# $a Double Image (Musical group : 1977-) 046 ## $s ## $a Musical group  Example 100 1# $a Singer, Isaac Bashevis, $d ## $f1904 $g ## $a Radzimyn, Poland $b Surfside, Fla. –[born in Radzimyn, Poland; died in Surfside, Fla.]

Attributes of works and expressions (Discussion Paper currently at MARBI)  Form of work  E.g., motion picture, play, music, symphony  Access point: parenthetical in $a or $t titles  No controlled RDA list  New 380? (Form of work) in Bibliographic and Authority  Date of work / of expression  Access point: $f in titles  046 (Special coded dates) - additional subfields in Authority  Place of origin of work  Add new Authority field 370 (Associated place) to Bibliographic  Other distinguishing characteristic of work / of expression  New 381? (Other distinguishing characteristics) to Bibliographic and Authority  Medium of performance  Access point: subfield $m  New 382? (Medium of performance) to Bibliographic and Authority  Numeric designation of a musical work  Access point: subfield $n  New 383? (Numeric designation of musical work) to Bibliographic and Authority  Key of a musical work  Access point: subfield $r  New 384? (Key) to Bibliographic and Authority

Attributes of works and expressions (draft currently at MARBI)  Example 130 0# $aCinderella (Choreographic work) 380? ## $aChoreographic work  Example 100 1# $aBach, Johann Sebastian,$d $t $aKaffee- Kantate 383? ## $cBWV 211  Example 100 1# $aFaith, Richard,$d1926-$tMiniatures 382? ## $aoboe $apiano 382? ## $aclarinet $apiano

Attributes of names and resources  Again, attributes may be recorded  In separate new field  In heading subfield, if available,  In both  Note (15 July 2009): These PowerPoint slides have been changed to reflect the decision made the day after the program to use the 37X range (rather than the 62X range) in the Authority format for the Name attributes. The Resource attribute tags (38X) in the previous two slides are under discussion and not yet approved.

Relationships  Resource to name RDA Appendix I Examples: author, artist, illustrator, cartographer, conductor  Resource to resource RDA Appendix J Examples: dramatized as (work); sequel; digest of (expression); filmed with (manifestation)  Name to name RDA Appendix K Examples: alternate identity, employee, founder, descendent, founding family  Names = persons, families and corporate bodies  Resources = works, expressions, manifestations and items
