RE: RDA Testing

[Biella, Joan]

Well, when they said RDA would be available "in June," I guess people here 
decided that if that meant June 1, they would be ready!!  Of course, it clearly 
doesn't mean June 1 as we seem to know now (I suppose they COULD spring it on 
us next Tuesday), but we're starting the training anyway.

I wonder if it will be in June at all??

I'm an RDA tester at LC--will begin training (at least introduction to RDA 
Toolkit) tomorrow, with lots more to come. Of course I'll report anything that 
seems useful and/or pertinent to us to the group, but truly useful things may 
not come up till after the three months of "training" which precede the three 
months of actual "testing," which are to begin in October. (And don't forget 
that the official position is that LC may not adopt RDA in the end ... the 
future is shrouded in mystery, as always.)

Heb-NACOers,

I know that some of your institutions are doing RDA testing. Are any of you 
going to be personally involved? It will be interesting to hear how it works 
with Hebrew script. I’m sure that those of us who are not testing would love to 
hear reports (very unofficial, of course!).

Re: RDA Testing

[Heidi G Lerner]

Stanford will be testing "officially" and all "origiinal" catalogers will be 
working with materials of the same type as their regular workflow. So I assume 
that I will be using Hebrew materials as part of my "assignmen." As of now I 
have no real details.
