MARC21 & FRBR/RDA

1. MARC21 & FRBR/RDA How to relate MARC fields to FRBR & RDA June 2012

2. Objectives • Connect MARC fields and subfields to the appropriate entity and attribute of FRBR • Recognize how RDA uses MARC

3. What is the difference? • FRBR is a conceptual model • How is the information described and organized • RDA is a content standard (as is AACR2) • What information is recorded and how • MARC is a carrier format • Computer code to consistently handle the data recorded • They are not the same thing. • Be careful of your vocabulary.

4. MARC field ≠ RDA rule • MARC fields are containers for content. • RDA describes content to be recorded that sometimes ends up in different fields.

5. MARC data • What does the bibliographic record contain? • MARC bib record is a mish-mash of WEMI information. • What does the authority record contain? • Records information for the name authorized access point, name attributes, and eventually, work and expression attributes

6. MARC bibliographic recordand FRBR Group 1: summary 1XX/240 = work, expression 245-260, 490 = manifestation 300 = expression, manifestation other 3XX = work, expression, manifestation 5XX = work, expression, manifestation, item 700-730 = work, expression 760-787 = work, expression, manifestation 8XX = work, expression [& manifestation] Slide taken from Judy Kuhagen’s Module A presentation on RDA

7. COIN Example:Identify the FRBR entity and attribute Creator of Work (relationship) Title of Work Language of Expression Title of Manifestation

8. COIN Example:Identify the FRBR entity and attribute Other title information of Manifestation Statement of Responsibility of Manifestation Note of Translation of Expression Note of Supplementary Content of Expression Note of Item

9. COIN Example:Identify the FRBR entity and attribute Publisher, Pub Place, Pub Date of Manifestation Extent & Dimensions of Manifestation Subjects of Work Editor of Expression

10. Conclusions • One bib record has attributes from all four entities of the FRBR structure • Attribute content may be by subfield, not by field.

11. What about the 008? • Attribute information is also recorded in the 008 • Repeated information and new information

12. What about the 008? • Other attributes that may show up in the 008: illustrations, target audience, index, etc.

13. 008: What entity or attribute is it? • Date info • Place of pub • Illustrations (optional) • Target audience (juvenile) • Nature of contents • Gov publication • Conference pub Work, Expression or Manifestation Manifestation Expression Work Expression Manifestation Manifestation?

14. So, now what? • So, now we will look at specific fields that may offer challenges as we apply RDA:

15. Fields with things to note • 1XX fields can use the $e subfield • 130 will be seen more, with qualifiers, to break title conflicts • 240 will need more qualifiers to break title conflicts and will be used in places it wasn’t used before

16. 130 with qualifiers?

17. 240 field • New title proper and not revised is new manifestation with 240 (same as A2) • Same title proper and revised is new expression: no 240 (same as A2) • New title proper and revised is new expression: 240 (NOT same as A2) • 780 field option for earlier edition, NOT 7XX (NOT same as A2) • What about no creator in the 1XX? Then remember the 130.

18. 240

19. 240 field • $s is used more • $o is used in musical works

20. Fields with things to note • 300 • Repetition • $b for illustrative content is now optional (Expression attribute) • use of $e (not new, but possibly more frequent) • recording duration for Music (Expression attribute) • 5XX • 500 – more variety of information • 502 – we now use subfields instead of just text • 505 – more frequent usage • 546 – not just for language; non-Roman uses it for script; Music uses this for form of musical notation

21. 300 field repeated

22. Fields with things to note • 7XX is used in many more ways, though many of them are optional • The use of the $e subfield to describe Group 2 relationships • 700/711/710/730/740 : not truly different • 7XX name.title entries used more • Expression information may be found in $l subfield, even for original language • Linking fields offer many more options

23. Fields with things to note • 7XX linking fields • Serials use is unchanged • 775 & 776 are now available • 775 : Other edition entry • 776 : Additional physical form entry • Can be used to express FRBR relationships, especially the content relationships, such as adaptation of, contains (expression), reprint of, revision of, etc. • Use the $i subfield • Found in RDA Appendix J

24. 775 in action

25. 776 in action

26. New bibliographic fields • 336 (RDA 6.9) Content type • 337 (RDA 3.2) Media type • 338 (RDA 3.3) Carrier type • Closed vocabularies • Repeat the field rather than repeat the $a subfield • $3 is your judgment • $b is pass-through element • Same information can be found in 300 or 500 with different details

27. Turning to the authority record • RDA tells us what to record, a little about how, nothing about where to record it; LC policy does tell us more about how and definitely where • Name attributes are now being recorded in many distinct fields, as well as the 670, by cataloger judgment • Specific attributes used to break conflict are still additions (qualifiers) in the authorized access point (1XX)

28. New authority fields • 046 for dates • 336 content (W/E) • 370 associated place (Name) • 371 address (Name) • 372 field of activity (Name) • 373 affiliation (Name) • 374 occupation (Name) • 375 gender (Name) • 376 family information (Name) • 377 associated language (Name) • 380 form of work (W/E) • 381 other distinguishing characteristic of work or expression (W/E) • 382 medium of performance (W/E) • 383 numeric designation of a musical work (W/E) • 384 key (W/E)

29. Proposed authority fields • 368 : additional corporate body attributes • 373 changes : adding corporate body scope to affiliation • 377 changes : expanding language to the expression • 378 : fuller form of personal name • 383 subfields : looking to add more subfield(s)

30. Fields with things to note • 111 : ongoing conferences no longer established without qualifiers • 100 : fuller form of name only if needed to break conflict

31. Relationships • Entities and attributes are found in the bibliographic and authority fields: where are the relationships? • Transcribed from your source: 245 $c • Given by the cataloger: 1XX & 7XX $e, 7XX linking fields, 5XX text notes • Sometimes never explained
