Re: [RDA-L] Can Lecturer be used as a valid relator term and do you have a good example of a DVD + Book RDA record?
Hi I think we should not treat this as DVD of motion picture or musical performance. We have to know the content of the DVD first. Since it is a kind of teaching/learning materials, the DVD may be a recording of lectures. In this context, I think assigning access points to the agents who are responsible for the creation of the course materials and the performer (the person(s) giving the lectures) is more appropriate to the users than the agents who are responsible for the creation (producing) the DVD. My 2 cents.

[RDA-L] Preferred title of manifestation(Was: Re:Date of publication not identified DtSt, Dates)
Hi Do we need a Preferred Title of Manifestation or Authorised Access Point for Manifestation to connect the manifestation to other Group 1 entities? Where are the rules in RDA?

Currently, the 245 is description and access point. Should we split them? We already do this, though inconsistently, through uniform titles/preferred title of the work, yes?

[RDA-L] Good article to share
Hi all This is good article. Simple and easy to understand. FRBR and RDA: What They Are and How They May Affect the Future of Libraries by Charles R. Croissant (THEOLOGICAL LIBRARIANSHIP, An Online Journal of the American Theological Library Association, Volume 5, Number 2, July 2012) Abstract: “Functional Requirements for Bibliographic Records,” a document issued by the International Federation of Library Associations’ Cataloguing Section in 1997, has achieved the status of an important theoretical model of the cataloging process, in effect, a theory of cataloging. It is the foundation on which the new cataloging code, Resource Description and Access (RDA), is based. An understanding of the FRBR model is essential to the understanding and application of RDA. This paper explains the entity-relationship model that FRBR presents: the bibliographic entities (work, expression, manifestation, item), their attributes, and the relationships that connect them. It explains how bibliographic records based on the FRBR model would be structured, and demonstrates how FRBR informs the structure of RDA. It describes the controversies connected with the forthcoming implementation of RDA in March 2013, and explores the implications of this implementation for the library community. https://journal.atla.com/ojs/index.php/theolib/article/viewFile/234/565 Regards Henry Lam
Re: [RDA-L] RDA requirements in LMS
Dear Su Nee The keyword of RDA is extensibility and interoperability. I would think a xml-based system would be better than a marc-based system. The new system should support integration of traditional collections and digital collections into one catalogue. It should have an open cataloguing workflow with ready tools supporting exporting and importing of records offline. This is to give you more freedom to do mass modification due to change of rules and practice, and ingestion of records from external sources.
