Webinar on June 18: Know & Go: IFLA-LRM: a New Conceptual Model
by Catherine Amey 18 May '18

18 May '18

Greetings I thought I would pass on that AMIGOS is hosting a webinar on June 18 about the LRM headlined: Know & Go: IFLA-LRM: a New Conceptual Model Just when you thought things had settled down: RDA is more or less stable; MARC will be around for a while longer ... along comes IFLA-LRM. RDA is based on the conceptual models defined by FRBR (Functional Requirements for Bibliographic Records), FRAD (Functional Requirements for Authority Data) and FRSAD (Functional Requirements for Subject Authority Data). These three models are combined and refined in the IFLA-LRM (IFLA Library Reference Model), which had been approved by the RDA Steering Committee as the new conceptual model for RDA. IFLA-LRM will have a profound effect on the development of the RDA Toolkit. This session will explain IFLA-LRM and discuss how this will change RDA. See https://www.amigos.org/node/3755 for more details and registration. Kind regards Catherine Catherine Amey Authority Record Coordinator National Library of New Zealand Te Puna Mātauranga o Aotearoa PO Box 1467, Wellington 6140, New Zealand Direct Dial: +64 4704485 | Extn: 3485 | www.dia.govt.nz<http://www.dia.govt.nz/> The National Library of New Zealand is part of the Department of Internal Affairs Te Tari Taiwhenua [cid:image008.jpg@01D357A2.44114FA0]

FW: [ordac-l] Changes to 3R Rollout and Schedule
by Anoushka McGuire 26 Apr '18

26 Apr '18

Kia ora koutou, You may have seen this already on other cataloguing lists, but I thought it was worth forwarding this latest update. Hei konā mai, Anoushka Anoushka McGuire | Team Leader, Cataloguing Team 1 National Library of New Zealand Te Puna Mātauranga o Aotearoa Direct Dial: +64 4 470 4524 | www.natlib.govt.nz<http://www.natlib.govt.nz/> The National Library of New Zealand is part of the Department of Internal Affairs Apologies to those receiving this on multiple lists. The initial release of the redesigned RDA Toolkit remains June 13th. Because of the complexity of changes to both the content and structure of the RDA standard, however, expectations for that initial release and the subsequent revision timetable have changed. The June 13th release will be a beta version of the new site in English only. It will include the following: * An initial implementation of LRM * Reorganized RDA instructions * Redesigned Personal and Institutional Profile capabilities * Search and navigation functions * Cross-Reference and Cross-Reference Preview functions * Ready Reference feature for each RDA element * Introduction of responsive design and greatly improved accessibility to the overall site The URL for the RDA Toolkit will not change. A button will be added to the current site to link users to the beta version. There will be periodic updates (likely September and December, and February) to both the RDA standard and the Toolkit site during the months that follow the initial release. These updates will include the following: * Refinements to the wording of the RDA standard * Introduction of a graphical browse tool * Translations of the RDA standard * Introduction of policy statements and integrated display The goal for having the site fully functional with most (if not all) the translations and policy statements is early 2019. Once this goal is met then the 12-month clock on the old Toolkit site will begin. In the weeks following the June release of the initial phase of 3R, we will collect user feedback on both the features and functions of the redesigned site and the revisions to the RDA standard. Toolkit users will be able to share their thoughts with Toolkit developers and the RDA Steering Committee through an online submission form and through a number of forums including live events at ALA Annual, IFLA’s World Library Congress, online, and elsewhere. The RSC will make direct appeals to special interests groups for feedback on specific issues. During the multi-stage rollout of the 3R Project, the content in the current Toolkit will be frozen but available to users without any breaking of links.
