For the RDA element to support this 500 note, I'm not sure that "Nature of the 
Content" (RDA 7.2) is appropriate, as RDA 7.2 is a work-related element for the 
"primary content" of the resource.

I think this 500 note falls under RDA 7.29 "Note on Expression" as it annotates 
the other expression elements such as those found in the 336 fields.

Also, I read the other expression elements such as "Sound Content" as fallback 
elements in case the 336 for "sounds" isn't chosen. A Content Type like 
"sounds" should be chosen if all or most of the resource is of this content 
type, or it is important for identification or selection. But if not, then the 
other expression elements like "Sound Content" or "Illustrative Content" or 
"Supplementary Content" should be chosen, as these refer to complementary 
expression attributes that support the primary content of the resource.

This reminds me of one of Sammy's (my son's) first favorite books was
called Dinos. It was on textured foam pages. There was a small amount of
text. And the thing that intrigued him the most was that the dinosaurs
could come out of their shapes (rather like a 1-piece puzzle on each page!)
He could play with (and chew on) the dinosaurs. The dinosaurs were all
different textures and colors. This was highly desirable for a 1-year old!
Here's a picture of it:

Re: [RDA-L] What is the appropriate RDA element for a term like "Board book" or "Scented book"

2013-05-09 Thread Deborah Fritz
Although that sounds like a really good idea, without an added option,
unfortunately, I do not think the RDA instructions for Extent of Text
(3.4.5.2)  do not allow us to use 'other' terms.

Even though 3.4.1.3 says " (For instructions on using other terms to
designate the type of unit see 3.4.1.5.)" and 3.4.1.5 allows alternative
terms, continuing down 3.4.1.3 takes us to Exceptions for Cartographic
resources, Notated music, Still images, Text, and Three-dimensional forms. 

For all of those types of resources, except Notated music and Text, the
recording instructions say "If none of the terms listed above is
appropriate, use a term designating the type of unit as concisely as
possible".

Notated music (3.4.3.1) says: "Apply the instructions given under 3.4.3.2
when recording the extent of a printed or manuscript resource consisting of
notated music (with or without accompanying text and/or illustrations)" and
"For resources consisting of notated music in other media (e.g.,
microforms), apply the basic instructions given under 3.4.1" which limits us
to using only the terms provided under 3.4.3.2 for printed or manuscript
notated music, although we are free to use alternative terms for 'other
media'.

Text (3.4.5.1) says: " Apply the instructions given under 3.4.5.2-3.4.5.22
when recording the extent of a resource consisting of one or more volumes,
sheets, portfolios, or cases containing printed or manuscript text, with or
without accompanying illustrations" and "For resources consisting of text in
other media (e.g., microforms), apply the basic instructions given under
3.4.1", which limits us to using only the terms provided under
3.4.5.2-3.4.5.22 for printed or manuscript text, although we are free to use
alternative terms for 'other media'.

So, until (if) we get an added option, if it seems important for
identification or selection  we can, perhaps, add Details of Base Materials
notes (500) for things like: 
Board books: e.g., "On board pages"
Rag books: e.g., "On cloth pages"
Bath books: e.g., "On plastic pages"

And (perhaps) Notes on Dimensions (500) for things that are shaped strangely
(Die-cut books)

Along with the Note on Expression (500) for things that contain different
content types, e.g., "A pop-up book with pull out tabs"

I don't think we have a Content Type for a 'Scented book', so would that be
covered under Base Material or, perhaps, Applied Material: Scent?

Re: [RDA-L] What is the appropriate RDA element for a term like "Board book" or "Scented book"

2013-05-09 Thread Deborah Fritz
You are quite right, of course, Thomas--Nature of Content is at the Work level, 
and I still don’t think that a pop-up version of “Horton Hears A Who” is a 
different work, although it certainly would be a different expression because 
of the addition of the Content Types. 

And since it is an expression level difference we are talking about for pop-up 
books, sound story books, and anything else that involves different Content 
Types, we need an Expression level note and your suggestion of 7.29 "Note on 
Expression" (in a 500) is just what we need to explain all those content types. 
Excellent. Thank you!

So, we can do:
300  12 unnumbered pages : $b color illustrations ; $c 24 x 30 cm 
336 ## $atext $2rdacontent
336 ## $astill image $2rdacontent
336 ## $athree-dimensional form $2rdacontent
336 ## $asounds $2rdacontent
337 ## $aunmediated $2rdamedia
338 ## $avolume $2rdacarrier
500 ## $aResource is a children's pop-up book with sound effects.

Even though such a note is not Core, it does seem important for identification 
or selection (and for copy cataloging selection too)

Also, I read the other expression elements such as "Sound Content" as fallback

"sounds" should be chosen if all or most of the resource is of this content 
type, or it is important for identification or selection. But if not, then the 
other expression elements like "Sound Content" or "Illustrative Content" or 
"Supplementary Content" should be chosen, as these refer to complementary

For the RDA element to support this 500 note, I'm not sure that "Nature of the 
Content" (RDA 7.2) is appropriate, as RDA 7.2 is a work-related element for the 
"primary content" of the resource.

I think this 500 note falls under RDA 7.29 "Note on Expression" as it annotates 
the other expression elements such as those found in the 336 fields.

Also, I read the other expression elements such as "Sound Content" as fallback 
elements in case the 336 for "sounds" isn't chosen. A Content Type like 
"sounds" should be chosen if all or most of the resource is of this content 
type, or it is important for identification or selection. But if not, then the 
other expression elements like "Sound Content" or "Illustrative Content" or 
"Supplementary Content" should be chosen, as these refer to complementary 
expression attributes that support the primary content of the resource.

Ooops! My mistake. For some reason, I was thinking we put that into the
300, but I don't think we actually did. (I don't normally catalog board
books -- but I do catalog a lot of other funny formats!)

So the 300 would probably stay similar to how it is now (except spelling
everything out) ... something like this:

300  12 unnumbered pages : ǂb color illustrations ; ǂc 24 x 30 cm

Your 336-338 look fine to me.

Along with a 500 note to express the interesting form of the book. I would
think that a strangely shaped book would also go in a 500 note.

Deborah,

I've been following this post with great curiosity.

I'm trying to get the full picture here. It is VERY important that people
understand that this thing is a bathtub book, popup book, and etc.  Are we
still going to describe the fact that it is a bathtub book, board book,
etc. in the 300? (If so, I am good with this scenario.)
So the fact that it is a board book, popup book, etc. will be reflected in
the:
300
500
and
655

I'm just wanting to be sure that I am understanding this correctly.

2013-05-09 Thread Deborah Fritz
I agree with Mac and you that it appears that these types of terms will
probably be best handled by the entity 'Object', once that entity is covered
by RDA. In the meantime, in MARC records, they (or their official
equivalents) can go in 655, as you both say.

 

The attributes of these types of materials will still need to be entered as
appropriate, e.g.:

 

336 ## $atext $2rdacontent

336 ## $astill image $2rdacontent

336 ## $athree-dimensional form $2rdacontent 

337 ## $aunmediated $2rdamedia

338 ## $avolume $2rdacarrier

(Resource is a children's pop-up book)

 

336 ## $atext $2rdacontent

336 ## $astill image $2rdacontent

336 ## $athree-dimensional form $2rdacontent

336 ## $asounds $2rdacontent

337 ## $aunmediated $2rdamedia

338 ## $avolume $2rdacarrier

(Resource is a children's pop-up book with sound effects)

 

I found the "BL Monograph WEMI Workflow" at
http://access.rdatoolkit.org/document.php?id=wka700 very helpful for the
above. 

 

There are undoubtedly other attributes that can be entered. 

 

I like the idea of using the Nature of the Content for a summary of the
contents:

500 ## $aPop-up book with sound effects

 

I also think it would be useful to enter the Base Material for a 'board
book' but I can't figure out which of the terms under 3.6.1.3 would apply,
or what other term is actually appropriate (perhaps 'paper over boards'-from
ONIX:
http://www.editeur.org/files/ONIX%20for%20books%20-%20code%20lists/ONIX_Book

I'd also like to enter the 'shape' attribute somewhere, but can't figure out
where-Note on Dimensions of Manifestation, perhaps.

But, you might have a point that some of these 'types' seem like different

different manifestations (Base materials: Hardboard) or even both; so,
perhaps for some of these, I need to be thinking 'Content' and, in that
case, details would have to be in Nature of the Content, e.g., for Tails
(above)

 

Base materials: hardboard

Content Type: tactile image

Content Type: text

Nature of Content: Pull tabs, lift-able flaps, tufts of fur, and even a
scratch-and-sniff skunk tail

 

Perhaps we may not be able to get these actual terms nicely placed in the
RDA records, until more work is done on Vocabulary Mapping. I do feel that
the more standardized we can be in using vocabulary terms instead of
free-text, the better it will be.

Subject: [RDA-L] What is the appropriate RDA element for a term like "Board

Does anyone know, which, if any, of the RDA elements for Physical Carriers 
would be appropriate for this type of information:

Board book
Rag book
Bath book
Pop-up book
Touch-and-feel book
Scented book
Sound story book
Sticker book
Die-cut book (e.g., shaped like a shark)

Most of these terms are from ONIX, and there are others in the list below that 
show up in AACR records now and then:
http://www.editeur.org/files/ONIX%20for%20books%20-%20code%20lists/ONIX_BookProduct_CodeLists_Issue_20.html


Under AACR we would simply have added this kind of thing as a 1.7B10 Physical 
Description Note (500), but I cannot see where to enter this type of 
information as an RDA element (ignoring MARC for the time being)

3.6 Base Material is a possibility for:

Board book: Base Material: hardboard (?)
Rag book: Base Material: textile
Bath book: Base Material: plastic

But I don't think those terms convey the information as well as the ONIX terms.

3.6.1.4 Details of Base Material would allow us to make this more note-like, 
e.g., On board pages shaped in profile of a bear (LCCN: 2009934889) ; but I 
don't think 'Scented book' fits under Base material at all.

The Extent of Text instructions  (3.4.5) are quite restrictive, with no 
allowance for the kind of leeway allowed under other types of materials, e.g., 
under 3.4.4.2 (Ex

different work, and I'm not sure I would think of it at that level, e.g.:
Horton Hears a Who

http://www.amazon.com/Horton-Hears-Who-Dr-Seuss/dp/0394800788

 

http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/0375841946/ref=pd_lpo_k2_dp_sr_3?pf_rd_p=15

Or 'Tails', which appears to be available in hardcover and as a board book:

http://www.amazon.com/Tails-Matthew-Van-Fleet/dp/0152167730/ref=sr_1_7?s=boo
ks
<http://www.amazon.com/Tails-Matthew-Van-Fleet/dp/0152167730/ref=sr_1_7?s=bo
oks&ie=UTF8&qid=1368043414&sr=1-7&keywords=scented+books>
&ie=UTF8&qid=1368043414&sr=1-7&keywords=scented+books

 

But, you might have a point that some of these 'types' seem like different
expressions (Content Type: tactile image + Content Type: text), rather than
different manifestations (Base materials: Hardboard) or even both; so,
perhaps for some of these, I need to be thinking 'Content' and, in that
case, details would have to be in Nature of the Content, e.g., for Tails
(above)

 

Base materials: hardboard

Content Type: tactile image

Content Type: text

Nature of Content: Pull tabs, lift-able flaps, tufts of fur, and even a
scratch-and-sniff skunk tail

 

Perhaps we may not be able to get these actual terms nicely placed in the
RDA records, until more work is done on Vocabulary Mapping. I do feel that
the more standardized we can be in using vocabulary terms instead of
free-text, the better it will be.

 

Hmm, now I'm wondering whether these terms might not turn out to be Objects
(yet to be released) http://access.rdatoolkit.org/document.php?id=rdachp14

Subject: [RDA-L] What is the appropriate RDA element for a term like "Board
book" or "Scented book"

 

Does anyone know, which, if any, of the RDA elements for Physical Carriers
would be appropriate for this type of information:

 

Board book

Rag book

Bath book

Pop-up book

Touch-and-feel book

Scented book

Sound story book

Sticker book

Die-cut book (e.g., shaped like a shark)

 

Most of these terms are from ONIX, and there are others in the list below
that show up in AACR records now and then:

http://www.editeur.org/files/ONIX%20for%20books%20-%20code%20lists/ONIX_Book
Product_CodeLists_Issue_20.html

 

 

Under AACR we would simply have added this kind of thing as a 1.7B10
Physical Description Note (500), but I cannot see where to enter this type
of information as an RDA element (ignoring MARC for the time being)

 

3.6 Base Material is a possibility for: 

 

Board book: Base Material: hardboard (?)

Rag book: Base Material: textile

Bath book: Base Material: plastic

 


But I don't think those terms convey the information as well as the ONIX
terms.

 

3.6.1.4 Details of Base Material would allow us to make this more note-like,
e.g., On board pages shaped in profile of a bear (LCCN: 2009934889) ; but I
don't think 'Scented book' fits under Base material at all. 

 

The Extent of Text instructions  (3.4.5) are quite restrictive, with no
allowance for the kind of leeway allowed under other types of materials,
e.g., under 3.4.4.2 (Extent of Still Images)  "If none of the terms listed
above is appropriate, use a term designating the type of unit as concisely
as possible". So we cannot say "1 board book" we must say pagination, or "1
volume (unpaged)"

In lieu of any other element, I'm leaning towards using 3.22.3 Note on Extent 
of Item:

Extent of Text: 1 volume (unpaged)
Note on Extent of Item: Board book

MARC:
300$a 1 volume (unpaged)
500$aBoard book.

Does this sound reasonable?

If we do not have an appropriate RDA element for these terms, then they, 
technically, do not belong in an RDA record, do they? And yet it seems a pity 
to not add this kind of information, if we can just figure out how this data 
fits into the RDA attributes/elements.
