by Joanne Rowan 10 May '18

10 May '18

Kia ora koutou, CatSIG is hosting our second Professional Development Day for Cataloguers on the 16th August at the National Library in Wellington, and we’d love you to join us! This year we’re also trying something new and will be livestreaming the day so if you can’t physically travel to Wellington you will be able to attend virtually. Our program will focus on the upcoming changes to RDA and because several members of the RDA Steering Committee (RSC) will be travelling to IFLA in Kuala Lumpur, we’ve been able to tempt them to travel a little further to speak to us. They will be sharing their expertise and experience with the IFLA Library Reference Model, Aggregates and Serials and the changes to the RDA Toolkit. We’re currently finalising details and will be opening registrations soon, (hopefully the 1st week in June) but in the meantime, please save the date and start making your travel plans! Where: National Library of New Zealand, Wellington When: Thursday 16th August 2018, 8.30-4.30 Costs: In person: $45 CatSIG, $50 LIANZA, $55 non member Live stream: $40 CatSIG, $45 LIANZA, $50 non member Recording access for 12 months (if you haven't already registered to attend in person or the live stream) $35 CatSIG, $40 LIANZA, $45 non member Morning and afternoon tea will be provided. Questions, feedback, comments: catsigcommittee(a)gmail.com<mailto:catsigcommittee@gmail.com> Our program will be finalised soon but in the meantime check out the draft program: Title Presenter Cat SIG AGM Introducing the IFLA Library Reference Model Gordon Dunsire Morning Tea Aggregates and Serials Deborah Fritz Lunch The new RDA : Resource Description in Libraries and Beyond Gordon Dunsire BIBFRAME and RDA Ebe Kartus Afternoon tea ORDAC and the RSC Anoushka McGuire, Catherine Amey, Chris Todd and Ebe Kartus RDA Toolkit demo and Q&A Ngā mihi, The CatSIG Committee

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.
