Cataloging with RDA Whats similar Whats different Richard

Cataloging with RDA: What's similar? What's different? Richard A. Stewart Cataloging Supervisor Indian Trails Public Library District Wheeling, Illinois rstewart@indiantrailslibrary. org

Designed for continuity “RDA uses the concepts, vocabulary, and principles that are recognized by the international cataloging community. It builds on existing cataloging traditions while also taking into consideration how library data will be used in the future. ” (Chris Oliver, Introducing RDA)

But it sure looks different! New terminology – from FRBR and FRAD New layout and format – principally online

User Tasks “Users and their needs are the starting point for both [FRBR and FRAD]. ” (Oliver)

User Tasks • Associated with bibliographic data (FRBR) Find To find entities corresponding to the user's stated search criteria Identify To identify an entity Select To select an entity appropriate to the user's needs Obtain To acquire or obtain access to the entity described

User Tasks • Associated with authority data (FRAD) Find an entity or set of entities corresponding to stated criteria Identify an entity Contextualize* Place a person, corporate body, work, etc. in context; clarify relationships between two or more persons, corporate bodies, works, etc. ; and between a person, corporate body, etc. and the name by which that person, body, etc. is known Justify* Document the authority data creator's reason for choosing name or form of name *tasks carried out by those who create authority data

Note the similarities … Objects of a dictionary catalog 1. To enable a person to find a book of which either (A) the author (B) the title is known. (C) the subject 2. To show what a library has (D) by a given author (E) on a given subject (F) in a given kind of literature. 3. To assist in the choice of a book (G) as to its edition (bibliographically). (H) as to its character (literary or topical). (Charles A. Cutter, Rules for a Dictionary Catalog, 4 th ed. , 1904)

Note the similarities. . . Five Laws of Library Science 1. 2. 3. 4. 5. Books are for use. Every reader his [or her] book. Every book its reader. Save the time of the reader. The library is a growing organism. (S. R. Ranganathan, 1931)

FRBR Terminology Entities Attributes Relationships

FRBR Entities Group 1 Products of intellectual or artistic endeavor

Group 1 Entities Work Expression Manifestation Item

FRBR Entities Group 2 Those responsible for intellectual or artistic content, physical production and dissemination, or custodianship of Group 1 entities

Group 2 Entities Persons Families Corporate bodies

FRBR Entities Group 3 Subjects

Group 3 Entities Can include any Group 1 or Group 2 entity plus Concepts Objects Events Place

Group 1 Entities Work is realized through Expression is embodied in Manifestation is exemplified by Item

Work A distinct intellectual or artistic creation Very abstract! – does not correspond with any tangible thing (At right : Shakespeare thinks)

Expression The intellectual or artistic realization of a work (specific sequence of words in a textual work, notes in a musical work, etc. ) Still abstract!

Manifestation The physical embodiment of an expression of a work (the set of all items with the same characteristics of content and form) Either a published edition or a single unpublished item

Item A single exemplar of a manifestation At last, a tangible, physical object!

Expression … can be embodied in multiple …

Representation and Common usage Representation • The data describing a resource should reflect the resource’s representation of itself. – “Take what you see and accept what you get. ” Common usage or practice • Data that is not transcribed from the resource itself should reflect common usage.
