Information about the webinar is below – we hope you can join us! Last week RDA rolled out a beta version of the new, revised RDA Toolkit with a very different ‘look and feel’. Changes to the Toolkit reflect the approach and content of RDA’s new conceptual model, the ‘LRM’ (Library Reference Model). Although it will be more than a year before the old Toolkit is decommissioned, you should begin preparing for this change now. To guide you through the process, Lynn Farkas Information Services is pleased to offer a series of webinars on Getting Ready for RDA ‘2.0’. Our webinars are an excellent way to keep up to date with developments in RDA. They are easy to participate in and an efficient way to be trained without having to leave your work area. Our first webinar, LRM in a Nutshell, will focus on the Library Reference Model (LRM) which forms the basis for RDA’s changes. Course details are below. Course title: LRM (Library Reference Model) in a Nutshell Venue: Interactive online Webinar session accessed from your desktop. Duration: 1.5 hours Presenters: Lynn Farkas, Helen Rowe Date: Thursday 5 July 2018 Time: 11.00am - 12.30pm, Australian Eastern Standard time Cost: $95.00 per person, including GST Participation: If you have never attended a webinar, we’ll send you details of what to expect. There will be time allocated to answer questions. Summary: The webinar will cover: * Background to LRM * Why LRM was developed * What’s the same in the new LRM model * What’s different and what’s changed * What’s new in LRM * Implications for RDA Toolkit use. Some of you may remember our ‘RDA Awareness’ webinar series in 2013/14, which introduced RDA to Australia’s cataloguing staff and library managers. This new series will continue our mission to demystify RDA for Australian cataloguers. Please note that we will also be offering face-to-face training for cataloguers, focusing on the practical details of using the new RDA Toolkit, in late 2018 and throughout 2019 in various locations around Australia. The Presenters Our presenters, Lynn Farkas and Helen Rowe, are experienced cataloguers, qualified trainers and designated RDA trainers. They are the authors of the practical workbook ‘Cataloging the RDA Way’ which is used in librarianship courses throughout Australia, Canada and the United States. Lynn and Helen have delivered webinars and face-to-face RDA training to many hundreds of librarian and technician cataloguers across Australia and New Zealand.

Māori Subject Headings June release
by Charlotte Christensen 26 Jun '18

26 Jun '18

[Apologies for cross-posting] Tēna koutou, The new and changed headings from the first Te Whakakaokao/Māori Subject Headings Working Group hui of 2018 are now available for use on the National Library website. As usual, files are also available for download to update copies in local systems. Important notice - your help needed! The next hui will be held in Mahuru/September and as always we're keen to hear any new suggestions you may have for the rōpū (group) to consider. It's a really easy process: if you're handling a collection item that is either in te reo Māori or has content about Māori, and you can't find an existing term in our thesaurus to suit your item, please email reo(a)dia.govt.nz<mailto:reo@dia.govt.nz> with your suggestion and the details of what you were working on. Suggestions where you don't know the Māori term are just fine. New terms - Pipiri/June 2018 Harore https://natlib.govt.nz/nga-upoko-tukutuku/harore Hekaheka https://natlib.govt.nz/nga-upoko-tukutuku/hekaheka Kākahi (Kararehe whāngote) https://natlib.govt.nz/nga-upoko-tukutuku/k%C4%81kahi-kararehe-wh%C4%81ngote Koraha https://natlib.govt.nz/nga-upoko-tukutuku/koraha Pūnaha parakaingaki https://natlib.govt.nz/nga-upoko-tukutuku/p%C5%ABnaha-parakaingaki Rāpoka https://natlib.govt.nz/nga-upoko-tukutuku/r%C4%81poka Ringa tohu (Whakaari) https://natlib.govt.nz/nga-upoko-tukutuku/ringa-tohu-whakaari Te Pakanga Tuarua o Te Ao https://natlib.govt.nz/nga-upoko-tukutuku/te-pakanga-tuarua-o-te-ao Tohi https://natlib.govt.nz/nga-upoko-tukutuku/tohi Tohu maumahara https://natlib.govt.nz/nga-upoko-tukutuku/tohu-maumahara Tumuaki https://natlib.govt.nz/nga-upoko-tukutuku/tumuaki Whare tapere https://natlib.govt.nz/nga-upoko-tukutuku/whare-tapere Changed terms - Piripi/June 2018 Most of the changes from this hui are either minor or involve broadening the scope of coverage of existing terms. Anga <https://natlib.govt.nz/nga-upoko-tukutuku/anga> had a minor change in the English scope note to clarify that this includes all frameworks, and not just basic ones. Kawa <https://natlib.govt.nz/nga-upoko-tukutuku/kawa> was previously restricted to situations related to marae and has now been broadened to cover any tribal grouping. Whare tūpuna <https://natlib.govt.nz/nga-upoko-tukutuku/whare-t%C5%ABpuna> has been reworded to help the English and Māori texts to better align, and to make it clear that it is the connection to ancestors which is important in applying this term, not the carvings. Pūrongo <https://natlib.govt.nz/nga-upoko-tukutuku/p%C5%ABrongo> has been broadened to cover articles, and also moved within the hierarchy/whakapapa of the thesaurus to sit directly under Kōrero <https://natlib.govt.nz/nga-upoko-tukutuku/k%C5%8Drero> so it can be applicable to non-written forms of reports and articles. Finally, Tūkinotanga ā-taiao has been subtly changed to Tūkinotanga ā taiao <https://natlib.govt.nz/nga-upoko-tukutuku/t%C5%ABkinotanga-%C4%81-taiao> removing the hyphen between the second and third words of the phrase. nāku nā Charlotte Christensen, on behalf of Te Whakakaokao Charlotte Christensen RLIANZA | Senior Collection Description Librarian National Library of New Zealand Te Puna Matauranga o Aotearoa Direct Dial: 07 867 1234 | www.natlib.govt.nz National Library of New Zealand is part of the Department of Internal Affairs [Logo-test]

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.
