I'd like your thoughts on a problem which the German library community
has to face when making the move to RDA: It's the question of whether
the description of a serial should be based on the first or the latest
issue (in cases of minor variations, which do not call for a new entry
altogether).

Make the 830. supported by a 500 note "Originally issued ...", as
opposed to a 490 (assuming the series does not appear on the

Aloha RDA-ers,
A question arose here about providing an access point for the series in
which an original manifestation was published when we are cataloging
photocopies of some of the series titles. RDA 27.1 instructs us to
record the series statement for the original manifestation in the 775
Not sure who to address this to, but I've tried my best on the archives to
resolve this with no applicable results.

Another aspect I have not seen mentioned, is that AACR2 style GMDs
only had to be assigned to nonbook materials. RDA 33X must be
assigned to all library resources, a major increase in effort. Not
only it is three terms for one, but they must be assigned to many more
records.

I don't think the 347 should have been left in the record for the
printout, since what you have is not a digital file. I also think the
second indicator in the 856 should be a 1 in the printout record.

Well, currently, our ExLibris Voyager system is not set up to display subfield

Unless the local ILS supresses one or the other, you would have

I suspect the confusion arises from the LCRI on reproductions, which

AACR2 was departed from by LCRIs, rule interpretations of other

The record doesn't appear to be following the current LC PCC Policy Statements.
The 347 field I believe applies to the online resource, not the printed

There is a revision process for RDA:
http://www.rda-jsc.org/revision.html
If you wanted to submit a proposal yourself, you would need to discuss
doing it through CILIP, as the relevant member body of JSC.
That's the way RDA gets revised.

Well, there does seem to be a large amount of discontent, if not widespread
rejection of the 330s replacing the GMD. And I see a few others were using
similarly user friendly (DVD, book on CD) terms to us, perhaps similarly hoping
as we were that this would be the direction things would go in.
