Internal and external factors that affect implementation
Challenges of and practical solutions to being a single trainer at an
institution
Statistical measurements of the initial workflow output

Participants will:
Identify strategies for RDA implementation, training, and workflow
Comprehend one successful RDA monographic workflow implementation at an
academic library
Gain an understanding of a successful training program for foundational
FRBR and RDA concepts
Learn useful training tips and techniques for trainers of copy
cataloging staff
Who Should Attend?
Cataloging managers and those who find themselves in a position of
training non-librarian copy cataloging staff.
