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

Therefore, we are not upgrading any I level OCLC existing record to RDA as instructed by OCLC in their policy statement release in 2011.

I know that at one time we were not supposed to do this, but I am wondering whether this has changed. Thanks!
