Hello cataloguers Do any of you catalogue items that are both hard copy and a PDF file in the one catalogue record? I realise it is probably not common practice, but this has been done in my workplace for years and now that I am starting to use RDA I'm unsure whether to continue and whether they should now be in completely separate records.
Is this the way that you would do it in RDA if you catalogued them in the one record: Physical description (300) (a) 28 pages and 1 online resource : (b) PDF file ; (c) 30 cm. Content type (336) text txt rdacontent Media type (337) computer c rdamedia Media type (337) unmediated n rdamedia Carrier type (338) online resource cr rdacarrier Carrier type (338) volume nc rdacarrier Digital file characteristics (347) text file PDF rda Thanks for your feedback.
