The impending launch of Resource Description and Access (RDA) will undoubtedly transform cataloguing standards that have been virtually unchanged for 30 years, and little guidance is available to help cataloguers make a smooth transition to RDA.
This textbook explores how RDA elements can be incorporated into MARC21. Topics include: an introduction to catalogues and cataloguing standards, publication formats and bibliographic elements, access points and headings, a summary which outlines the major issues and many others.
