Thanks, Sarah McGuinness MARC21 IN YOUR LIBRARY This course is an introduction to MARC21 and how it is meant to work in a library automation system. It explains what the MARC standards are and how those standards tie in with our cataloguing rules (AACR) to help cataloguers create data that will function effectively in a library catalogue. Target audience: directors, reference people, acquisitions people, copy cataloguers, beginning cataloguers, and experienced but untrained cataloguers. There are two discrete parts to MARC21 in your Library: Part One of this course consists of a series of web-casts and web-based mini-courses and covers the underlying fundamentals of MARC and bibliographic information. Duration: approx. 5 hrs; presenter: D. Fritz; site/dates: on-demand, anytime. Click here to access the Part One modules (for free) http://www.marcofquality.com/webinars/webm21.html Part Two of this course consists of three modules, provided through a traditional training session at a physical site and covers the core codes that are most commonly found in MARC records, and their functions.

This workshop provides an introduction to finding cataloguing records that you can copy, explaining some of the more obvious challenges and some neglected database issues, with a brief look at essential editing. You will need to come to the Book Blitz (4 days) workshop to know how to do a really superb job of editing records that you copy, but this workshop will get you started in the basic principles of copy cataloguing.

[Apologies for cross-posting] Tena tatou katoa E nga mana, e nga reo, e nga kaitiaki taonga katoa o Aotearoa, nei ra he maioha na matou o te komiti whiriwhiri o Nga Upoko Tukutuku. We are very pleased to announce that Jacinta Paranihi has been appointed to the one year contract position of Maori Subject Headings Librarian, starting in mid-August. This is a new position, created as a pilot following feedback gathered around the LIANZA conference 2009 in order to ensure the thesaurus grows more quickly and to do research between project team meetings. The position has been created by LIANZA, Te Ropu Whakahau and the National Library working in partnership. Jacinta has been a member of the project team since 2009 and has a BA(Hons) in Maori Studies from Otago University. She also has some library experience from work in Dunedin and Wellington and most recently for AUT in Auckland. In other news, we have loaded 62 new headings to the MSH thesaurus including some tied in to this year's Maori Language Week theme of kai such as Tunu kai for cookery and Tikanga tunu kai for recipes. Additionally, there are a number of sports terms, including Whutuporo for Rugby Union ready for the World Cup build up.

Fwd: [rdaaust] OCLC policy statement on RDA cataloguing in WorldCat for the U.S. testing period
by Chris Todd 26 Jul '10

26 Jul '10

>>> Catherine Argus <cargus(a)nla.gov.au> 26/07/2010 12:53 p.m. >>> Dear colleagues OCLC has released a policy statement on RDA cataloguing in WorldCat during the U.S. testing - http://www.oclc.org/us/en/rda/policy.htm As part of U.S. testing, some RDA records will be added to WorldCat between October and December. Australian libraries are not participating in this testing; however those that use WorldCat may encounter some of these records. The statement includes WorldCat protocols for record creation and editing during the test period. Libraries Australia is committed to implementing the MARC21 changes required to support RDA well in advance of the Australian RDA implementation date. Libraries Australia plans to implement the MARC21 changes in early 2011, until then AACR2 remains the standard for records in Libraries Australia.

RDA at ALA and at the National Library
by Chris Todd 23 Jul '10

23 Jul '10

Hi All, Ksenija Obradovic of the University of Auckland, attended the 2010 ALA conference and in particular many of the RDA-related events at that conference. Ksenija's report can be found on the DescribeNZ wiki at http://www.describe.org.nz/ Since the publication of RDA, National Library senior cataloguers have been creating trial records, as Word documents, as a way of learning how this new tool works. We are also currently examining RDA core elements along with the core elements being used in the US national libraries test, to evaluate which elements we would use for NZ National Bibliographic records. When this work is closer to completion we will be making it available more widely. We anticipate that the results of the US libraries test may affect our decisions in this area. One of the challenges in using RDA is that many of the rules are so similar to AACR2 that it is perilously easy to miss the differences. A tool that we think will be useful to many libraries is the Library of Congress Train-the-Trainer webcasts. Although these were filmed in January 2010, and there are some differences between the draft and published versions of RDA, the videos give an excellent account of major differences in both approach and specific instructions between AACR2 and RDA. They are available at http://www.loc.gov/bibliographic-future/rda/trainthetrainer.html Have a good weekend everyone Chris Chris (Christine) Todd Team Leader, Cataloguing Team 1, Content Services, National Library of New Zealand.

RDA training at the National Library
by Chris Todd 16 Jun '10

16 Jun '10

Hi All, Apologies for cross-posting. This is a long-ish email and will also be posted to the DescribeNZ wiki http://nznuc-cataloguing.pbworks.com/RDA-Training-at-the-National-Library RDA is due for publication within the next week or two and the cataloguers at the National Library have been looking at how to make use of the time between the initial publication of RDA and the international implementation decisions that are expected following the conclusion of the US national libraries testing in March 2011. The following sets out our current plan: 1. Open access to the RDA Toolkit. We have signed up for institutional access. At this stage we've received a confirmation of the registration but we don't have any logins yet. The signup information is at: www.rdatoolkit.org 2. Training plan. We are planning a phased introduction to the RDA toolkit, beginning with our team leaders and senior cataloguers who will then provide support for other cataloguers as they begin engaging with the toolkit and new rules. We will start by taking AACR2R records that we have already created and converting them to RDA records using a Word template. We will not be adding RDA records to our Voyager databases at this stage. When we have confirmed our RDA template we will make it available on the DescribeNZ wiki. 3. Introductory activities We have identified three activities before we start creating records: · learning to use the RDA toolkit · a general introduction to RDA - we are likely to make use of presentations from the JSC site for this http://www.rda-jsc.org/rdapresentations.html as well as some of the material on the DescribeNZ wiki · examining the Library of Congress choices for the RDA test http://www.loc.gov/catdir/cpso/RDAtest/rdachoices.html and the Library of Congress Policy Statements (the replacement for the Library of Congress Rule Interpretations) http://www.loc.gov/catdir/cpso/RDAtest/rda_lcps.html 4. Practice records.We will use print monographs and monographs-in-series as our initial formats, adding in other record types and formats as we become more confident. 5. RDA choices and alternatives. During this period we will also be assessing the RDA optional rules and the new Library of Congress Policy Statements (LCPSs) for their applicability to us. Following this we will develop a policy document for National Library cataloguing that will be available to all New Zealand libraries. Please contact me if you have any queries.
