The big boys have said they will implement RDA, but it still has never been road-tested. Certain parts will definitely create some controversy when news reaches the public, such as eliminating the rule of three for the rule of one. That is a very serious change and when I have mentioned this to

A number of big research libraries in the US have already made the switch: Chicago, I remember, and certainly some others, though I don't remember who else off the top of my head. My small academic library will not be contributing original RDA records until there is a larger pool of records to
