The PCC Standing Committee on Training is pleased to announce that the SCT RDA Record Examples, first posted in April 2012, have been revised. In the 2015 revision of these records, SCT received invaluable assistance from Paige Andrew, Melissa Beck, Iman Dagher, Steve Early, Greta de Groat, Erin Leach, Margaret Hughes, Cory Nimer, Jasmine O. Rizer, Hilary Thorsen, and Hermine Vermeij, and others. The most notable changes include new and revised relationship designators, the addition of new 3XX fields (34X and 382), and more genre/form terms. Newer MARC fields (such as fields 385 and 386, valid in both the Bibliographic and the Authority Formats), will be added to the records after PCC best practice guidelines are available for their use. Revision dates were added to the top of each revised record. A few records were replaced, and several new authority records were added. We anticipate that revision will be an ongoing process in the future rather than a big revision once every couple of years.
The revised records are available on the CLW web site at: http://www.loc.gov/catworkshop/RDA%20training%20materials/SCT%20RDA%20Record s%20TG/index.html Comments or Questions: If you have questions about these records, or have suggestions on how to enhance their usefulness, please contact the Cataloger's Learning Workshop (CLW): http://www.loc.gov/catworkshop/contact/ or the co-chairs of the Standing Committee on Training (addresses below).
