Apologies for duplication as this goes out (late! apologies for that, too) 

to multiple lists. 

 

The ALCTS CRS Continuing Resources Cataloging Committee (CRCC)

invites all catalogers & serialists to a 

Forum at ALA Annual in Washington, DC on Monday, June 28, in 

Washington Convention Center (WCC) Room 145A, from 1:30-3:30pm 

 

There will be brief updates from representatives of the ISSN Center, 

the Library of Congress and CONSER Program, and CC:DA,  

followed by a special program on the Testing of RDA records for serial resources., 

  

Featured guests will include 

Tina Shrader, a representative from the National Agricultural Library 

on the Task Group coordinating the official testing; 

Renette Davis (University of Chicago), to share thoughts on 

preparing staff for testing RDA; 

and Robert Bremer of OCLC, to field questions on 

the impact of RDA-compliant records on OCLC WorldCat. 

 

CRCC Chair-designate (2010/2011) Jennifer Young (Northwestern) 

will lead a brainstorming Q & A session on how interested catalogers 

and institutions might participate in RDA testing of serial records 

and provide feedback to one another and to the official test partners.
