FORWARDED ON BEHALF OF Robin Pitkethley. Please reply to: Robyn P. Pitkethley [Robyn.Pitkethley(a)waidc.govt.nz] Hello, We at Waikato District Libraries (Huntly) are struggling to know what to do about RDA. We missed out on the training in 2012 - are there any more training sessions coming up? We are noticing some bib. records coming through with the new 300 fields. Please help! We don't know what we're doing!

Some interesting stats about usage of MARC fields in OCLC - FYI Ksenija ~~~~~~~ Ksenija Obradovic, ALIANZA Cataloguing Manager The University of Auckland Library | Te Tumu Herenga Private Bag 92019, Auckland 1142, NEW ZEALAND Telephone (649) 373-7599, ext 85797 http://nz.linkedin.com/pub/ksenija-mincic-obradovic/a/268/77a E-books in Academic Libraries<http://www.woodheadpublishing.com/en/book.aspx?bookID=2016&ChandosTitle=1> From: Smith-Yoshimura,Karen [mailto:smithyok@oclc.org] Sent: Tuesday, 5 February 2013 10:32 a.m. Subject: MetaMan IG: FYI - New OCLC Research Prototype: MARC Usage in WorldCat Dear OCLC Research Library Partners Metadata Management Interest Group - For those of you who are not on the OCLCRLP Systems Discussion List, I thought you might be interested in this summary from the OCLC Research Library Partnership Heads of Systems meeting held on 28 January 2013 in Seattle: Roy demonstrated a prototype OCLC Research service that exposes how MARC has been used by providing summary reports on WorldCat data. The goal of this temporary project (it will run during 2013) is to support the work of the Library of Congress, OCLC, and others in determining what the future of bibliographic description will hold. It is now available at <http://experimental.oclc.org/marcusage/> and any feedback or requests for specific reports are welcome. Any of you eager to know just how often a MARC field or subfield occurs in WorldCat? Check it out! - Karen
