[RDA-L] Business case and evaluation
21.08.2013 12:30, James L Weinheimer: When I have mentioned that it was necessary to make sense of the RDA project in practical terms, or in other words, make a business case, it was obviously deemed unnecessary. What's necessary, nonetheless and all the more, will be evaluations, done by third parties with no shares in this enterprise. All components of the migration to RDA should be looked at: -- education -- workflow -- per unit costs -- changes in legacy data; bib records and authority -- changes in software -- changes in services and their costs (utilities and such) -- effects on users: find, identify, select tasks (specifically looking at effects of inconsistencies) -- overall costs to name some of the more important items. Only, who's going to commission those evaluations? Or who's going to be responsible for not doing that? B.Eversberg
Re: [RDA-L] 264 with only a copyright date
An appropriate display would like this: RDA record: *Publication:* New York : Harper, [1961] *Copyright date:* c1961 AACR2 record: *Publication: *New York : Harper, c1961 Which one is clearer and not liable to misinterpretation by users (non-catalogers)?

Re: [RDA-L] 264 with copyright date and first published date and reprint date
I would consider First published date 2012 as the publication date. Reprinted date 2013 would be a manufacture date. In this case, the manufacture statement can be ignored. Anyway, if you consider it important, put a 500 note for the reprinted date. Also, for the second 264 field (with the second indicator 4), the only thing you need is sub-field c for the copyright date. As you did, put a symbol before the date. Hopefully it helps.

[RDA-L] Reconciliation of RDA and MARC relators
Hello I've just come across NDMSO's MARC and RDA Relators Reconciled, http://www.loc.gov/marc/annmarcrdarelators.html, dated May. This offers a single list of relators, with MARC/RDA overlaps resolved. But I'm not clear about the status of this list. Does it mean that LC now approves the use of all the relators in it, including the ones which do not occur in Appendix I? The LC-PCC PS on I.1 still recommends the PCC guidelines, and they still require the use of terms from Appendix I. Or does it mean that the non-RDA terms will be fast-tracked into Appendix I? Or neither? I'm particularly interested in whether or when we can use 'thesis advisor'. Please can anyone elucidate?

[RDA-L] Manufacture statement
Hi, all I have a question about manufacture statement. Generally manufacture statement is only required if neither publication nor distribution statement is identified. Does that mean I should have two 264 fields (with like [publisher not identified] and [distributor not identified]) before the third 264 field? Or, just need a publication statement? Now I have some old books. These books only have printing information. So there could be two options. For example: 1) 264 1 $a [Illinois?] : $b [publisher not identified], $c [1860] 264 2 $a [Illinois?] : $b [distributor not identified], $c [1860?] 264 3 $a Belleville, Illinois : $b Rupp und Grimm, $c 1860. Or 2) 264 1 $a [Illinois?] : $b [publisher not identified], $c [1860] 264 3 $a Belleville, Illinois : $b Rupp und Grimm, $c 1860. I am not sure if these old books (early printed books?) would have a distributor. But I feel that I may have to take option 1. Isn't it too much work? Many thanks for your help in advance.

Re: [RDA-L] Manufacture statement
I feel that the answer should be option 1. A similar case is for copyright date. A copyright date is only required if neither date of publication nor date of distribution is identified. So far I only have seen records with two dates: a probable publication date, and a copyright date. I haven't gotten a chance to see records with three dates: a probable publication date, a probable distribution date, and a copyright date. So I assume there is no such requirement. Is that right?

Joan Wang posted: 264 1 $a [Illinois?] : $b [publisher not identified], $c [1860] 264 3 $a Belleville, Illinois : $b Rupp und Grimm, $c 1860. IMNSHO this is more than enough; the 264 2 is not needed. (The indicators are in the wrong order; a resource has to be manufactured before it is distribution. But wrong RDA MARC order is not unique to this; the 33X are not in general to specific order as was the original proposal.) We would provide 264 2 OR 264 3 if the publisher is not known; not both. But I suspect in this case we would consider the printer to be the publisher, and have the data you have in 264 3 as 264 1. As you asked earlier, what makes a better display?
