Thank you for the questions that have been posted to the lists about RDA training in response to my email. It is always encouraging to see interest in RDA.
For people in Lynne's position, CatSIG recently offered Deborah Fritz's course "Rudimentary RDA" as a webinar and more sessions are planned for August and September. Details about the content of Deborah's course is available at http://www.marcofquality.com/trn/trnindex.html
CatSIG is currently in discussion with a provider for courses in using RDA for copy cataloguing. CatSIG will be calling for expressions of interest in the very near future to determine the number and location of cataloguers requiring this training.
If anyone is interested in some introductory material about RDA, I recommend the material on the DescribeNZ wiki, in particular the presentations from the CatSIG seminars held last year with Barbara Tillett as the guest presenter. They are all available at http://nznuc-cataloguing.pbworks.com/w/page/59180786/Presentations%20from%20... rbara%20Tillett%20RDA%20Seminar
