AACR2 RDA Notes
heading authorized access point “heading” reflects outmoded ‘catalog-card-speak’
author, composer, artist, etc. creator
main entry preferred title and, if appropriate, the authorized access point for the creator
“main entry” reflects outmoded ‘catalog-card-speak’, related to cards in a file cabinet
uniform title
Two RDA counterparts:1. the preferred title and any differentiating
information;2. a conventional collective title such as “Works”
see reference variant access point
see also reference authorized access point for related entity
physical description carrier description
GMD
three elements:1. content type2. media type3. carrier type
GMD was an inconsistent presentation of different categories of information
chief source preferred sources This is not only a change in terminology; ‘sources’ have been expanded from a single source to multiple sources
Outline of the RDA terminology that changed from AACR2
RDA as a Content Standard
It provides instructions on recording the content of records
It does not provide instruction on how a given library system should display the bibliographic information
Nor does it provide instruction on encoding the information.
RDA is schema-neutral.
RDA – International Standard
RDA is less Anglo-centric than AACR2 It focuses on user needs In addition, the library policy can make discretion
regarding the:language of additions to access pointslanguage of supplied data script and transliterationcalendarnumeric system
RDA – scope of resources
RDA also covers the wider scope of resources being acquired in libraries today.
It provides for more elements for:non-printed text resourcesnon-text resourcesunpublished resources
RDA – Controlled vocabularies
Has many controlled vocabularies Only a few of the vocabularies are closed (e.g.,
content type; media type; carrier type) Most of the vocabularies are open; you can
either supply your own term as needed, or suggest a term be added to the vocabulary (or do both).
RDA – Controlled vocabularies
Libraries may decide to include some of these controlled vocabulary terms in templates
ILS vendors could provide them in drop-down lists.
The RDA vocabularies are now registered on the Web. The existence of those machine-readable controlled vocabularies will allow more machine manipulation
RDA – The structure

RDA vs. AACR2
The instructions that were in AACR2 formed the basis of the text for RDA, so you will find that MANY of them haven’t changed much.
They may have been reworded to make them easier to understand, but they’re still there
RDA vs. AACR2
•Still includes options and alternatives, like AACR2 does, and many of these are
the same, though there’s more now.
• Some AACR2 options have become part of the main instructions of RDA.
RDA vs. AACR2
1. Title and statement of responsibility2. Edition3. Material or type of publication specification4. Publication5. Physical description6. Series7. Notes8. Standard number
RDA vs. AACR2
•Still uses MARC records that we are used to •There are some changes to MARC

RULE OF THREE – NO MORE RDA allows the cataloguer to list all of the author’s listed

RDA vs. AACR2No abbreviations
Edition terms to be transcribed as they are on the resource
If abbreviated on the resource then they are abbreviated in the catalogue data
If spelled out on the resource, they will not be abbreviated as they would have been in AACR2
