ALCTS webinar: RDA for the Non-Cataloger: What’s In It For You?
Date: October 31, 2012

All webinars are one hour in length and begin at 11am Pacific, noon 
Mountain, 1pm Central, and 2pm Eastern time.

Description: Many libraries will be implementing RDA (Resource 
Description & Access) early in 2013. What will this mean for technical 
services and other library staff? How are RDA records different from 
AACR2 records? This webinar will provide a general overview of the 
changes in RDA, particularly those affecting staff in technical services 
and those noticeable in the OPAC. No knowledge of current cataloging 
standards or MARC required! While this webinar will not teach how to 
catalog with RDA, it will be a useful foundation for catalogers new to 
RDA as well as other library staff and administrators.

Who should attend? Technical services staff, public services staff, 
administrators

Presenter: Lori Robare is Head of the Monographic Cataloging Team at the 
University of Oregon Libraries. She recently served as Chair of the 
ALA/ALCTS Committee on Cataloging: Description and Access and has 
previously served as chair of the ALA/ALCTS Subject Analysis Committee. 
She has presented frequently on RDA to both specialized and general 
audiences
