So, I get this bit now. But here's another question, can't find any clues in the resources so far.
On t.p. verso of a title for which I have an RDA bib: the US and Canadian publication information. I know I do not have to include the latter, but in a Canadian university library, I still want to. Is the correct 264 as follows: 264_1$aNew York, NY :$bRandom House, Inc. ;$aToronto :$bRandom House of Canada Limited,|c[2012] Or do I use two 264's? I think the above is still correct, right? Two 264's (for publishers, that is, not for two entities performing different functions, such as pub and dist) are for multi-part & serials only? This I hope will be my last question today. I will soon be giving Mac a run for his money as most frequent poster! ;) KN From: Resource Description and Access / Resource Description and Access [mailto:RDA-L@LISTSERV.LAC-BAC.GC.CA] On Behalf Of M.

Haven't seen it done so far. The 264 field dedicated to copyright is for the date alone--that's it. So all you'll get is: - 264 -4 $c (c)2013 See RDA 2.11 for the instructions, if you have a copy. If you want to get into the copyright weeds, there's the 542 field: http://www.loc.gov/marc/bibliographic/bd542.html -- Mark K. Ehlert Minitex <http://www.minitex.umn.edu/>
