A special issue of Cataloging & Classification Quarterly will be devoted
to the experiences of catalog and metadata librarians at formal and
informal RDA test sites during the recent U.S. testing phase. We invite
submissions from professionals in cataloging and metadata, as well as
other related disciplines. Submissions should address an aspect related
to the RDA test, including but not limited to implementation, teaching,
and training.
The guest editors of the special issue, Drs. Sylvia D. Hall-Ellis and
Robert O. Ellett, Jr., welcome the submission of papers for
consideration. Instructions for authors can be found at
http://www.informaworld.com/0163-9374. The deadline for submissions is
May 16, 2011. To submit a paper, please use the ScholarOne submission
system.
Cataloging & Classification Quarterly is dedicated to gathering and
sharing information in the field of bibliographic organization. This
highly respected journal considers the full spectrum of creation,
content, management, use, and usability of bibliographic records and
catalogs, including the principles, functions, and techniques of
descriptive cataloging; the wide range of methods of subject analysis
and classification; provision of access for all formats of materials;
and policies, planning, and issues connected to the effective use of
bibliographic data in catalogs and discovery tools. The journal
welcomes papers of practical application as well as scholarly research.
All manuscripts are peer reviewed. Once published, papers are widely
available through Taylor & Francis' Informaworld database and other
outlets.
