Abstract

RDA is the new content standard for Resource Description and Access which will be published in 2009. It is emerging from a major restructuring and re-evaluation of current cataloguing rules. RDA supersedes AACR2. It is a new tool, more flexible and extensible than AACR2, more logical and thus easier to use, applicable beyond traditional cataloguing, and designed for use in an on-line, networked environment.

Description

This presentation was given at the 2008 Ontario Library Association SuperConference on Saturday February 2, 2008. The other presenters were Ingrid Parent (Assistant Deputy Minister, Documentary Heritage Collection Sector, Library and Archives Canada) and Pat Longo, Head, Cataloguing Services, Brock University Library.
