***Apologies for cross-posting*** Dear all,
Please find attached details about an RDA implementation workshop organised by the ARLIS cataloguing and classification committee, which focuses on the practicalities of RDA implementation. We hope this will be of interest not just to art librarians, but others who are thinking about - or thinking about thinking about! - RDA implementation, especially those working in small or medium libraries. We do hope you can join us. Best wishes, Debbie [cid:image003.png@01CE1B64.DB6BFCD0] ARLIS/UK & Ireland Cataloguing and Classification Committee ARLIS RDA implementation workshop Friday 12th April 2013, 1pm - 5 pm Christie's Education, 153 Great Titchfield St, London, W1W 5BD RDA is coming! National libraries such as the Library of Congress and British Library will be fully adopting RDA by March 31st 2013, so all other libraries need to consider how they will deal with changing to this new cataloguing standard. The ARLIS cataloguing and classification committee invite you to a half-day workshop which considers the practicalities of implementing RDA. Alan Danskin (British Library) starts the workshop with an overview of how the British Library and other national libraries have implemented RDA. Next, Janet Ashton (British Library) and Deborah Lee (Courtauld Institute of Art) will outline the main issues and policy decisions that libraries need to make, highlighting those particularly important for small/medium libraries and/or art-related collections. Stuart Hunt (University of Warwick) will discuss the systems considerations needed to implement RDA. Deborah Lee (Courtauld Institute of Art) will then share her experiences of adopting RDA at the Courtauld, focussing on training. The workshop will provide plenty of opportunities to ask the speakers questions and for discussion.
