Thanks to the editors and writers for the latest issue of Catapult. 

I wanted to query one statement in it regarding the RDA Toolkit's beta version on p. 11 of Catapult which says:

My understanding was that there had been quite a bit of change to the content including to bring it in line with LRM. There's a summary of it in the 8 June document here: http://rda-rsc.org/news along with some change to wording (which IMO makes it harder to understand especially for new cataloguers or cataloguing students) and the removal of numbering (ditto for both groups; teaching from this version will be challenging).

While I'm aware this is only the beta version and needs a lot more added to it, I am not encouraged so far. I would be interested to hear what others in NZ think about it.

For anyone on CatSIG list who is not also on RDA-L, I do recommend subscribing and following the on-going analysis there.

Regards

Amanda
