Re: [RDA-L] Differentiating Names of Persons in RDA name authority records: Questions posted on RDA Cataloging, Google+ Community

I like this display! Clear, gives the user lots of information and explanations, and the labels are okay. Now how do we get there from here? [Lots of stuff deleted to save space. Quote from Dan begins here] Dan Matei said: Under the surface, it would be (very) nice to have the appellation

Re: [RDA-L] AACR2 records in OCLC

My understanding was that we would not recatalog AACR2 master records to RDA. Why would we? Authority records will be updated but why bib records? Pat Patricia Sayre-McCoy Head of Law Cataloging and Serials D'Angelo Law Library 1121 E. 60th Street Chicago, IL 60637 p-mc...@uchicago.edu

Re: [RDA-L] Profession or occupation

I'm not sure this is a conflict as long as the RDA record makes it clear that Sharma, S.K., Major is not the same person as Sharma, S.K. (Military officer). Major is a specific rank and in this case, you could look at Major and Military officer in the same light as different authors having the

Re: [RDA-L] Suspend Rule of 3: was This Week on RDA Toolkit

I have to chime in here-it's a CATALOGING rule, not the law of the land. If you need more than three to describe and improve access to your material, do it. The Cataloging Police are not going to arrest you. I've been breaking rules like this for years and no one ever complained there were more

Re: [RDA-L] Indexing 336-384

Ann, Did you do something with the 3XX fields to create a GMD or are your public services librarians relying on the 3XX to tell them what format the record is for? We miss the GMD because it was included in our title list and so far, the 3XXs are not so catalog users have to look at each record

Re: [RDA-L] Plans for Existing Bib Records?

Can we really compare our product (metadata/bibliographic records) to a can of corn? One is simple--I want a can of corn. Supermarkets are organized with the canned vegetables together (usually) and for those who cannot read English, there is a picture of corn on the can. One could confuse corn

Re: [RDA-L] FRBR

I really should stay out of this because FRBR makes my head spin, but what the heck, it's Friday--in some way; the Mona Lisa t-shirt is related to the original Mona Lisa and I would argue that they are not different FRBR works but different expressions, maybe not the child of the painting but a

[RDA-L] Reprint cataloging

Hi all, Does anyone feel they understand the linking field structure for a reprint well enough to review one I have? I'm not sure I'm phrasing the note in the 775 correctly and would like another opinion. It's no. 73 in the Save file. Pat Patricia Sayre McCoy  1121 E. 60th

Re: [RDA-L] general interest in RDA

I'm glad to hear that RDA is being included in Cataloging/Metadata classes. I remember my cataloging class (winter 1981) when on the last day of class my instructor passed around a photocopy of an AACR cataloging card and said you'll never see these again. AACR2 began Jan. 1, 1982, but I

Diane, Although not teaching cataloging or metadata creation, I'd love to see your materials. It may help with my copy catalogers' training. Thank you for being so generous. Pat Patricia Sayre McCoy  1121 E. 60th Street Head, Law Cataloging Serials   Chicago, IL 60637
