  10. RDA - Content, Media, and Carrier Fields Applied to ALL records, including books and scores What are they? They are terms that delineate: the content of a resource the intermediation device used for accessing the content the carrier in which the content is housed/packaged Change or new concept? Both (sort of): Brand new elements and terms, but… Collectively replace the general material designation Somewhat same purpose, but more granular Used mostly for indexing and in the Advanced Search

  22. RDA Record DisplayDream vs. Reality Dr. Sonia Archer-Capuzzo University of North Carolina at Greensboro smarcherdma@gmail.com

  23. Format • Content, media, and carrier type (33x fields) • To display or not to display, that is the question. • Are these fields searched? • How are they searched?

  24. AACR2 RDA

  25. Language and Script • 546 Language information. • 546 $b Staff notation.

  26. Specialized Fields • 344: Sound characteristics • 346: Video characteristics • 518: Date, time, & place of event

  27. Relationship Identifiers • For contributors • For other resources

  28. Your Own Utopia • What information is important for your patrons? • What information should stay behind the scenes? • How can you maximize search capabilities using new RDA capabilities?

  29. Issues to Address with Systems Patty Falk Title: Music Catalog and Metadata Librarian Bowling Green State University pkfalk@bgsu.edu

  30. Issues to Address with Systems Staff •Work with cataloging staff and Systems Staff together •Find out what your vendor is doing for RDA •Review indexing and display configurations •Add new MARC 21 fields (i.e. 336, 337, 338, etc.) •Make changes in validation tables •Create new macros •Configure import and export profiles to include new fields

  31. Issues to Address with Systems Staff-continued •Test online system to see that all the mechanisms are in place •Determine what you want to display and what you want suppressed from the public •Determine if you want to change field names to reflect RDA changes •76X-78X fields will display for reproductions of original

  32. Implementation of RDA at BGSU •Catalogers met regularly and trained in RDA together using LC webinars •Catalogers created local policies for changes in RDA and brought to appropriate library groups to share and discuss before presenting to all library staff •Catalogers worked with systems staff to address suppression of 33x fields until different wording can be created by statewide consortium cataloging group (OhioLINK group)-this would only confuse patrons and other staff as it currently reads

  33. Authority Records in RDA •New fields have been added to RDA authority records with some very specific to music including: •382-medium of performance •383-numeric designation of music work •384-key

  34. Authority Records in RDA •Personal name example with 38x fields

  35. Authority Record Examples •Musical group examples

  36. Authority Records Examples Musical groups
