Thank you! That wasn't there on Thursday when I last tried.

This is a concern of mine, also, and I too would like to understand the 
publishers' plans for archiving all iterations of RDA and making them 
accessible.

I'm a little concerned that the constituency review has been removed from 
rdaonline.org and that there is no re-direct from the previous URL. Scholarly 
works and presentations have cited this as a source and it is an important part 
of the history of cataloging code to preserve access to this particular draft.

As someone who has referred to various iterations of AACR2 to review how rules 
have changed over time, the disappearance of the review copy is disturbing. In 
the same vein, I assume that RDA will be an integrating resource, so what 
efforts will there be to preserve iterations over time for research purposes?

thanks,
Bobby Bothmann

Hi Mark,

Thank you for your question.  Yes the www.rdatoolkit.org is the new
primary website for RDA. The www.rdaonline.org URL is in the process of
being redirected to www.rdatoolkit.org.  It can take up to 48 hours for
this redirection to propagate through the internet.  After this time
links to www.rdaonline.org will redirect to the new www.rdatoolkit.org
and the current website at www.rdaonline.org will no longer be visible.

Kind regards,

Troy Linker
