Nonexistent data for an element such as Production Statement can still mean there is a Production Statement.
There is also the method to record the subelements in a production statement or publication statement if known or probable data cannot be determined. A related manifestation element would still exist, and some of the production or publication could still be recorded even if it is only probable data, and so it makes sense to continue to keep that data separate. Place of Production: Place of production not identified Producer's Name: Producer not identified Date of Production: Date of production not identified Related Manifestation: Reproduction of (manifestation): Author. Title. Publication Statement (of original) Also getting into new territory for me, would the RDA Manuscript-related elements (RDA 3.9.2) apply for a single cataloged print-out of a published electronic resource? Production Method for Manuscript: printout On another note, related to another post, there seems to be no designator for the relationship element "Producer of an Unpublished Resource," even in the reconciled RDA-MARC-id.loc.gov list http://www.loc.gov/marc/annmarcrdarelators.html . In RDA, though, the top-level relationship elements are not repeated as designators. "Publisher" is an element, not a designator, whereas there is a more specific designator that falls under Publisher, "broadcaster."

Note, that 2.8.1.3 states a condition must be met, that when both publication data of the reproducer and the original are found on the item, then in that case, you record the data for the reproducer. The implication is that if the data for the reproducer isn't presented, then you use the data of the original. Just saying. Adolfo -----Original Message----- From: Resource Description and Access / Resource Description and Access [mailto:RDA-L@LISTSERV.LAC-BAC.GC.CA] On Behalf Of Brenndorfer, Thomas Sent: Thursday, September 26, 2013 1:13 PM To: RDA-L@LISTSERV.LAC-BAC.GC.CA Subject: Re: [RDA-L] RDA local printouts I would tie two RDA instructions together: RDA 1.1.2 "The term 'resource' is used in chapters 2-4 to refer to a manifestation or item." RDA 2.8.1.1 "A publication statement is a statement identifying the place or places of publication, publisher or publishers, and date or dates of publication of a resource." The manifestation in Chapter 2 is the actual physical object in hand, not the original, and so the publication statement, in refering to the manifestation, refers to that physical object. Elsewhere in RDA, 'resource' can refer to work, expression, manifestation, or item, but not in Chapter 2 where it is only applied to manifestations or items. In addition, there is 2.8.1.3 Facsimiles and Reproductions, which directs the use of a Related Manifestation element for the original publication statement: "When a facsimile or reproduction has a publication statement or statements relating to the original manifestation as well as to the facsimile or reproduction, record the publication statement or statements relating to the facsimile or reproduction. Record any publication statement relating to the original as a publication statement of a related manifestation."

But I could be persuaded by Thomas Brenndorfer's argument that the publisher of the printout is the agency that printed it out. I would also be content with a decision to apply the provider-neutral guidelines in reverse and give the publisher of the online in the publication elements. But that would not be what RDA itself says to do. Adam On Thu, 26 Sep 2013, J. McRee Elrod wrote: > Date: Thu, 26 Sep 2013 10:38:59 -0700 > From: J.
