ALCTS webinar: Introduction to RDA
Description: This introductory webinar on the proposed cataloging rules,
Resource Description and Access (RDA), will highlight the critical
differences between the current cataloging rules, AACR2, and RDA. It is
designed as a primer for both front line catalogers and library
administrators in all types of libraries who need to learn how
bibliographic and authority records will change when RDA is implemented.
The session would be an excellent introduction to record changes for
both original catalogers and copy catalogers.
Note: This webinar will not cover the elements of the Functional
Requirements for Bibliographic Data (FRBR) on which RDA is based nor
will the RDA Toolkit interface be demonstrated.
Presenter: Robert Ellett is the Catalog Librarian at the Joint Forces
Staff College, Norfolk, Virginia. He is also an instructor for the
online LIS program at San Jose State University’s School of Library and
Information Science and a trainer for the Program for Cooperative
Cataloging. Robert serves on the ALCTS Cataloging & Classification
Section Executive Committee and is a member of the Resource Description
& Access (RDA) Planning and Programming Task Force. He received his
library degree from UNC Chapel Hill and his PhD from the Graduate School
of Computer and Information Sciences at Nova Southeastern University.
Date: September 22, 2010
Note special time for this session only: 5pm Eastern, 4pm Central, 3pm
Mountain, and 2pm Pacific Time.
This is the first in a planned series of workshops on RDA. Additional
information and dates to be announced soon.
