Re: [RDA-L] Location of Conference and MARC Authority 370 (fwd)

2012-09-11 Thread Moore, Richard
RDA and MARC always seem to be slightly out of step with each other, I think this is part of the issue. MARC is ambiguous in that it has a specific subfield for related countries ($c), but the definition of $f allows associated places at any level. $f purports to be for Other or additional

Richard, There is no current place in MARC to separately record the element Number of a Conference. While I've been informed by John Attig that that was a deliberate decision not to propose a field for that bit of data, I hope that there will be a separate place for it when we move to the

How are others handling the documentation of local decisions and policies for RDA? I seem to recall a very handy tool in an earlier incarnation of LC Cataloger's Desktop, that allowed for placement of sticky notes that could be shared across an institutional copy of Desktop. This was a really

Hello, Pamela! LC announced the implementation of the 264 MARC field in June. The last time I looked, OCLC still had nothing about it, but you can get the basic layout at: http://www.loc.gov/marc/bibliographic/bd264.html 264 requires a second indicator, usually #1 (publication) and/or #4

Thank you so much, Robert! (and everyone else who responded to my email). I noticed that option at 2.8.1.4, but didn't connect the dots to what I was doing. Since Vintage Departures is a series statement (thanks John Hostage) and I have the option of omitting Random House, it makes sense to

What Robert said is true, but there is an LCPS for 2.8.1.4 that says: LC practice for Optional omission: Generally do not omit levels in corporate hierarchy. So LC catalogers will generally transcribe the publisher statement as found in a resource. The PCC practice for this omission has not
