YOUR PRESENTOR: At Rest…At play… 4
5
EXPECTATIONS You: you have experience with AACR2 and with creating some records for maps, etc. We’re all still in a learning mode when it comes to RDA and its principles A lengthy learning curve… At the descriptive level, the changes for cartographic materials are not that huge I’m not close to being “expert” yet … but I’m trying!

ROAD MAP TO THIS PRESENTATION RDA Section 1 “Recording Attributes of Manifestation and Item” chapters 1, 2, and 3 RDA Section 2 “Recording Attributes of Work and Expression” chapters 6 and 7 Appendices B and D Hosted by ALCTS, The Association for Library Collections and Technical Services 7
8
ROAD MAP…cont’d Some RDA Background New Concepts New Terminology Changes That Apply to All Materials Cartographic Materials-Specific Changes Hosted by ALCTS, The Association for Library Collections and Technical Services 8
9
RDA Background Why RDA? – focus on digital information Flexible and Extensible Support the User (and those of us who support our users) Four “user tasks” All about Relationships – Describing Entities Helps in process to “find”, “identify”, “clarify”, and “understand” Hosted by ALCTS, The Association for Library Collections and Technical Services 9
10
NEW CONCEPTS 10
11
NEW CONCEPTS: “Take What You See” Principle of Representation or “Take What You See” Simplifies the cataloging process Impact on abbreviations, inaccuracies Important in that it allows for data reuse Streamlines workflows Helps make our records more internationally useable …remember “take what you see” Hosted by ALCTS, The Association for Library Collections and Technical Services 11
12
NEW CONCEPTS: “Core” and “Core if” See RDA Instruction 1.3 “Core Elements” LC RDA Core Elements for the RDA Test (combination of RDA “Core” and RDA “Core if” elements plus additional elements): http://www.loc.gov/catdir/cpso/RDAtest/training2word7.doc http://www.loc.gov/catdir/cpso/RDAtest/training2word7.doc and also … RDA Core Elements and FRBR User Tasks http://www.rda-jsc.org/docs/5chair15.pdf Hosted by ALCTS, The Association for Library Collections and Technical Services 12

LEARNING A NEW LANGUAGE: SOME RDA TERMINOLOGY ACCESS POINT (0.7) ≈ “Heading” CREATOR (RDA glossary) = a person, family, or corporate body responsible for the creation of a work, e.g., a cartographer CARRIER (Chapter 3) = Physical medium for storage of information LCPS = Library of Congress Policy Statements (similar to Library of Congress Rule Interpretations in AACR2; look for the “LCPS” logo or under the “Resources” tab in the RDA Toolkit to access these) …and “Mode of Issuance” (see Instruction 1.1) Hosted by ALCTS, The Association for Library Collections and Technical Services 14
15
FRBR, FRAD, etc. 15
16
FRBR, FRAD, etc.: All About Relationships RDA based on models such as FRBR and FRAD Entity-relationship models Relationships between entities, and between it and the user’s tasks Out of 10 Sections in RDA, 6 devoted to recording relationships Hosted by ALCTS, The Association for Library Collections and Technical Services 16
17
FRBR GROUP 1 ENTITIES: A Model of Relationships WORKS: “a distinct intellectual or artistic creation” EXPRESSIONS: “the intellectual or artistic realization of a work in the form of…” MANIFESTATIONS: “the physical embodiment of an expression of a work” ITEM: “a single exemplar of a manifestation” *I refer to them as WEMI’s… Hosted by ALCTS, The Association for Library Collections and Technical Services 17

CHANGES TO RECORDS ACROSS ALL FORMATS… “RULE of THREE” ABBREVIATIONS NEW 33X FIELDS RELATIONSHIP DESIGNATORS PUNCTUATION CONVENTIONS Hosted by ALCTS, The Association for Library Collections and Technical Services 19
20
Rule of Three Under AACR2, rule 1.1F5 forced us to use “… [et al.]” whenever more than three persons or bodies were responsible; this also carried over into other aspects of descriptive cataloging Under RDA 2.4.1.5 this constraint is gone in favor of showing all relationships…for example: AACR2: Bibliographie du department “Urbanisation et socio- systèmes urbains” 1982-1987 / comité de redaction, L. Bourgeois … [et al.]. RDA: Bibliographie du department “Urbanisation et socio- systèmes urbains” 1982-1987 / comité de redaction, L. Bourgeois, J.P. Duchemin, E. Le Bris, A. Sinou. Hosted by ALCTS, The Association for Library Collections and Technical Services 20
21
Rule of Three…mixed responsibility AACR2: Autobiography of Mark Twain. Volume 1 [electronic resource] / Harriet Elinor Smith, editor ; associate editors, Benjamin Griffin... [et al.].

Relationship Designators 34
35
Relationship Designators… Appendices I, J, K, and L in RDA Appendix I = Relationships between a resource and persons, families, corp. bodies associated with it Appendix J = Relationships between WEMIs Appendix K = Relationships between persons, families, and corp. bodies Appendix L = Relationships between concepts, objects, events, and places (forthcoming) Hosted by ALCTS, The Association for Library Collections and Technical Services 35
36
Relationship Designators…concerning cartographic materials Appendix I, see Instructions under I.2, I.3, I.4 I.2.1: “author”, “cartographer” or “designer” I.2.2: “producer”, “sponsoring body” …and so forth… For example: 100 1 Raisz, Erwin, ≠d 1893-1968, ≠e cartographer.

CHANGES TO RECORDS FOR CARTOGRAPHIC MATERIALS 255 field, Mathematical Data Elements 300 field, Physical Description Hosted by ALCTS, The Association for Library Collections and Technical Services 40
41
CHANGES TO RECORDS FOR CARTOGRAPHIC MATERIALS Focus on changes to mathematical data elements, particularly found in 255 $a square brackets no longer used “ca.” and abbreviations changes Focus on changes to physical description data elements abbreviations…again metric symbols, not an abbreviation Hosted by ALCTS, The Association for Library Collections and Technical Services 41
42
Mathematical Data Elements Chapter 7 of RDA “Describing Content” 7.25 Recording Scale Statements (255 ≠a) 7.26 Recording Projection Statements (255 ≠b) 7.4 Recording Coordinates (255 ≠c) 7.25.1.3 “Recording Scale” mirrors Area 3.3 of Chapter 3 in AACR2 except for the use of square brackets; the explicit use of the term “Scale” in the statement; and the use of “ca.” Hosted by ALCTS, The Association for Library Collections and Technical Services 42
43
Mathematical Data Elements: Conversion to RF form RDA 7.25.1.3 and AACR2 3.3B1→ must provide scale as a representative fraction (RF), e.g., 1:100,000 When not given on the map as an RF, convert by: changing a verbal statement to RF, e.g., “1 in. = 4 miles” use a Natural Scale Indicator to measure from a bar/graphic scale on the map (see above) BUT…in RDA we do not supply the data with square brackets Hosted by ALCTS, The Association for Library Collections and Technical Services 43
44
Mathematical Data Elements: Square Brackets, “approximately” and “Scale” AACR2 Format Scale [ca. 1:10,000] Scale [1:600]. 50 ft. to an in. 3.3B1. Give scale as a RF, if not in that form convert and give in square brackets with “ca.” if computed from a NSI, or only in square brackets if computed from a verbal scale. RDA Format Scale approximately 1:10,000 Scale 1:600. 50 ft. to an in. 7.25.1.3, instructions for recording scale overall, must give as RF form; 7.25.3.3 instructions for recording horizontal scale. Square brackets are NOT used. 44
45
Mathematical Data Elements: Abbreviations General instruction in RDA Appendix B: B.4 Transcribed Elements use only those abbreviations found in the sources For transcribed elements, use only those abbreviations found in the sources of information for the element. If supplying generally do not abbreviate words. If supplying all or part of a transcribed element, generally do not abbreviate words. approx. 255 Scale approx. 1:100,000. [“approx.” appears on the map] BUT approximately 255 Scale approximately 1:100,000. B.5.7 Additional Scale Information abbreviations prescribed in B.7 Use abbreviations prescribed in B.7 for terms used as part of additional scale information (see 7.25.5). Metric symbols are not abbreviations Metric symbols are not abbreviations; such symbols are not followed by a full stop. in.cmkm. 255 Scale 1:253,440. 1 in. equals 4 miles. 1 cm equals 6.43 km. 45
46
PHYSICAL DESCRIPTION ELEMENTS 46
47
Physical Description Elements Instructions for recording these elements separated between two chapters, 3 and 7 In many cases Instructions for cartographic materials are separated from generic Instructions, definitely helpful! (e.g., 3.5 vs. 3.5.2 for maps) Overall the changes from AACR2 to RDA are minor, for instance: AACR2→ 1 map : ≠b col. ; ≠c 62 x 59 cm., folded to 22 x 10 cm. versus RDA→ 1 map : ≠b color ; ≠c 62 x 59 cm, folded to 22 x 10 cm. 47
48
Physical Description Elements: Abbreviations “col.” now must be spelled out as “color” “colored” has a specific meaning; color added after map was created, not during the process other commonly abbreviated words in AACR2 are no longer abbreviated, e.g., [“diam.” is now “diameter”] Hosted by ALCTS, The Association for Library Collections and Technical Services 48
49
Physical Description Elements: Chapter 3 Extent (300≠a): separated out for cartographic materials (see Instruction 3.4.2) Layout (300≠b): cartographic images separated out (see Instruction 3.11.2) Dimensions (300≠c): remember that metric symbols, e.g., cm, are not abbreviations (see Instruction 3.5.2) Hosted by ALCTS, The Association for Library Collections and Technical Services 49
50
Physical Description Elements: Chapter 7 In AACR2, 3.5C it is “other physical details” and all aspects are collocated in one location (layout, production method, number of maps in an atlas, colour, medium, material, mounting) In RDA, Instructions for most of these are in Chapter 3, but the attribute of color is found in 7.17.1.3 Hosted by ALCTS, The Association for Library Collections and Technical Services 50
