LIANZA CAT SIG - CATALOGUING UPDATE AND DISCUSSION FORUM Tuesday May 20, 10.00AM-11.00AM It has been a while since cataloguers have had a chance to get together to kōrero about cataloguing issues, and a lot has been going on! This is an opportunity to come together virtually to discuss what’s happening in the cataloguing world, including the progress of Official RDA. As a starting point, these are some discussion questions we want to discuss: Cataloguing in general * Are you a sole cataloguer, or are you in a team? * How much cataloguing is a part of your role? * How much original / copy / [other] cataloguing do you do? * What has changed over the last few years with respect to cataloguing in your institution? * What challenges are at the forefront of your mind and your colleagues ' minds? * Do you feel you have enough cataloguing support in your role? Official RDA * Have you had a chance to engage with official RDA, e.g. in training, reading, or watching webinars? * What changes have you seen coming through in catalogue records (e.g. NLNZ official RDA implementation)? * How have these changes affected what you do? * What approach have you taken to decide how to respond to the changes? * Have you started original cataloguing using Official RDA Communication * How much communication do you have with cataloguers outside of your institution? * Would it be helpful to have more communication? * What ways? If you can’t make it but want to send some feedback, contact catsigcommittee(a)gmail.com<mailto:catsigcommittee@gmail.com>.
