Zusammenfassung

The 2010 release of Resource Description and Access is not the release of a revised standard; it represents a shift in the understanding of the cataloguing process. This title places RDA in context by examining its connection with its predecessor, AACR2, and looks at its relationship to internationally accepted principles, standards and models.

Introducing RDA Zusammenfassung

Introducing RDA: A Guide to the Basics Chris Oliver

The release of Resource Description and Access is not the release of a revised standard; it represents a total shift in the understanding of the whole cataloguing process. This shift from the Anglo-American Cataloguing Rules (AACR) to RDA will require a fundamental re-orientation in the way library staff, especially cataloguing staff, approach the function of describing resources and creating access to them. This book will assist professionals with this transition.
The book guides the reader through the key topics and questions providing a concise explanation of RDA, its implementation and its expected benefits for users and cataloguers.
Key sections include:

  • what is RDA? placing RDA in context
  • why are we changing to RDA?
  • making the transition to RDA
  • after implementation.

Readership: This book is an essential introductory guide not only for cataloguers but for all library staff, information professionals, support staff and LIS students

Introducing RDA Bewertungen

This is the best explanation I have yet seen on RDA as a whole. I would strongly recommend buying this book for your library, so that everyone can understand the new changes and standards that will influence how libraries and others will deal with the description and organization of information in the future.

-- Collection Building

The book provides a basic understanding of how our work will transition once we adopt RDA. There is a good general introduction to RDA... There is an especially good introduction to the use of the RDA Toolkit, including descriptions of Toolkit navigation and explanations of how the Toolkit may be integrated into our work...Introducing RDA could provide an introduction for the uninitiated technical services librarian, for library administrators and for interested public services or systems folks. It's a good first step toward the understanding needed for application or use.

-- TechKNOW

Introducing RDA is a valuable resource for all cataloguers and most definitely one no library planning to changeover from AACR2 to RDA should be without. It also is a valuable source for faculties faced with the teaching of the new cataloguing standard.

-- The Electronic Library

...covers the essentials of resource description and...is likely to serve well teachers and students of what may still be called cataloguing (or perhaps 'metadata production').
