Under RDA, revised editions are interpreted to be expressions of the original edition, unless the creator who was used in the authorized access point for the original edition is no longer named in the statement of responsibility. Go to http://www.loc.gov/aba/rda/Refresher_training_dec_2011.html and review the presentation "Revised editions," especially starting at slide 14.
The first edition of Understanding employment law on LCCN 2007026152 had Bales named first. The 2nd ed. on LCCN 2013004371 had Bales named 3rd, so the authorized access point for the work still consists of his authorized access point in the 100 plus the title in the 245. This is a change from AACR2 practice. ------------------------------------------ John Hostage Senior Continuing Resources Cataloger Harvard Library--Information and Technical Services Langdell Hall 194 Harvard Law School Library Cambridge, MA 02138 host...@law.harvard.edu<mailto:host...@law.harvard.edu> +(1)(617) 495-3974 (voice) +(1)(617) 496-4409 (fax) ________________________________ From: Resource Description and Access / Resource Description and Access [RDA-L@LISTSERV.LAC-BAC.GC.CA] on behalf of Wesson, Jinny [jwes...@rtc.edu] Sent: Monday, October 28, 2013 14:58 To: RDA-L@LISTSERV.LAC-BAC.GC.CA Subject: [RDA-L] Question about multiple authors on an OCLC record OCLC #87852529 Understanding Employment Law There are 3 authors, all listed as shown on title page (including the Univ info) in the 245 tag $c Jeffrey M. Hirsch, Paul M. Secunda and Richard A. Bales. This is the order shown on title page. The record shows Bales, Richard A. as the author in the 100 tag. I know in AACR2, I always used the first author listed on title page. RDA toolkit is confusing to me and I could not find information on this.
