RDA costs
by Maureen Borkin 16 Nov '08

16 Nov '08

Good morning At Book Blitz III, Deborah Fritz mentioned that we should budget for the ongoing costs of RDA. Does anyone have an estimated figure for that?

Query on name authority
by Chris Roberts 13 Nov '08

13 Nov '08

Hi everybody I am trying to unpick some headings for the author/s Philip Holden, who on our merged catalogue has headings under no dates, 1937- and 1938-. On doing searches on LC Authorities and looking at the authority records we already have in place, I am beginning to feel a little confused, as the notes that have been added are a little ambiguous. Is anyone able to confirm to me that the Philip Holden who writes on NZ hunting also has written westerns under three known pseudonyms? I am reasonably sure I can eliminate the confusion between the 1938 and 1937 entries - they do appear to be the same person - because one has mention of a date incorrectly printed on a book jacket. Is this also 'our' NZ Philip Holden, the hunter, and has he also written titles on hunting in Australia? I started to do some searching on the net but got bogged down with entries from libraries and bookshops that didn't actually give me the information I need and figured there are quicker ways to do this.

Thanks everyone. Sarah seemed to have had the most information in her welcome message (mine had the line across it but no other content and didn't even state the subscription email address) so I shall save her email to CatSIG for future reference.

RDA
by Chris Todd 11 Nov '08

11 Nov '08

No sign of the draft yet, but the following information has been sent out to a number of Australian library lists and I thought New Zealand cataloguers might be interested in subscribing. With the imminent release of the final draft of Resource Description and Access (RDA), the National Library of Australia has established a new email list for discussion of RDA as it relates to specific to Australian libraries, including implementation and training matters. To subscribe to the list send a message to sympa(a)nla.gov.au In the subject line of your message, type in subscribe rdaaust Firstname Name (replace Firstname Name with your own first name and last name). For example subscribe rdaaust Mary Smith Leave the message body blank You should then receive a welcome message with details of how to post messages to the list etc. Chris (Christine) Todd Team Leader, Monos Plus Team, Content Services, National Library of New Zealand. Telephone: (04) 474 3093 Fax: (04) 474 3161 Email: chris.todd(a)natlib.govt.nz
