Oliver, Chris, 1951-

Introducing RDA : a guide to the basics / Chris Oliver.

London : Facet Publishing, ©2010.

vii, 117 pages : illustrations ; 28 cm

This special report helps cataloguers by concisely explaining RDA and its expected benefits for users and cataloguers, placing RDA in context by examining its connection with its predecessor, AACR2, as well as looking at RDA's relationship to internationally accepted principles, standards and models.
The release of Resource Description and Access is not the release of a revised standard; it represents a total shift in the understanding of the whole cataloguing process. This shift from the Anglo-American Cataloguing Rules (AACR) to RDA will require a fundamental re-orientation in the way library staff, especially cataloguing staff, approach the function of describing resources and creating access to them. This book will assist professionals with this transition. The book guides the reader through the key topics and questions providing a concise explanation of RDA, its implementation and its expected benefits for users and cataloguers. -- Publisher description from http://www.facetpublishing.co.uk (Oct. 25, 2011).
