Cataloguing Rules!: The Road to RDA

Title:	Cataloguing Rules!: The Road to RDA
Author:	Knight, F. Tim
Abstract:	Resource Description and Access (RDA) emerged out of a planned revision and updating of the Anglo-American Cataloguing Rules (AACR2). This initiative hopes to transform cataloguing standards so they stay relevant with the flexibility needed to adapt to the contemporary information environment. This paper looks at the development of this new standard and the need for a new cataloguing standard in the 'digital world.'
Description:	This article is based on the presentation, Why RDA?, delivered at the Canadian Association of Law Libraries annual conference held in Saskatoon, Saskatchewan in May 2008.
