Thank you Mac and Trina, and thank you Trina for pointing out that I forgot to include Australia in my 264. I knew that it should be included, but somehow, even though I typed it in to my message, it just didn't register when I constructed my 264.It's nice to have a concrete answer so I don't

Re: [RDA-L] Home country rule

In RDA there is no home country rule to follow. Either record just the first place, or record all of the places. Any other practice would lead us back to records that aren’t completely compatible or shareable internationally, because agencies in different countries would not produce the same

Re: [RDA-L] Varying form of publisher's name on t.p./t.p. verso

I do have a - (ooh, almost said final) - question related to this exchange. What does RDA require when the place of publication on the title page is like this: Cambridge, Massachusetts, and London, England. Both in $a, just as they are, including and, or two $a's, one for each city? Karen

[RDA-L] Special issue
