Over the past two years, CONSER has been developing documentation and "bridge" training material as RDA cataloging policies and best practices evolve. By June 2013, post RDA implementation guidelines from the PCC should be in place and ready for practical implementation.
The workshop will provide basic instructions for RDA serials cataloging based on the most up to date PCC and CONSER RDA decisions and practices. The presenters will incorporate in-class, hands-on exercises to engage participants in active learning. Prior to the workshop, attendees will be expected to complete prerequisite self study training modules on FRBR Fundamental Concepts and the RDA Toolkit. Also prior to the workshop attendees may participate in an online follow-up session on the prerequisite materials to complement the in-class training component.
This workshop is aimed at experienced AACR2 catalogers making the transition to RDA.

7. How to identify RDA records
MARC coding for RDA bibliographic records:
040 $a ____ $b eng $e rda $c ____
PCC practice:
Code for (and use) ISBD punctuation:
Leader/18: value “i”
8
RDA records always have: 040 $e rda
PCC Practice: Fixed field Desc “i”
9
Other elements in RDA records
• MARC fields:
Production, publication, distribution,
manufacture, and copyright notice (264)
Content type (336)
Media type (337)
Carrier type (338)
• Spelled out descriptions
e.g., volumes, edition, illustrations
10
8. Other elements in RDA records
Treat as “clues” only:
• MARC fields:
Production, publication, distribution,
manufacture, and copyright notice (264)
Content type (336)
Media type (337)
Carrier type (338)
• Spelled out descriptions
e.g., volumes, edition, illustrations
11
RDA records vs. RDA-like elements
allowed in pre-RDA records
• 264 field(s)
• 33X fields
– May see some PCC AACR2 records with
these elements

Terminology
• Title of a work: words or characters by
which a work is known
• Preferred title of a work (6.2.2.4)
– Basis for authorized access point
– Based on title proper of first manifestation
• Variant title(s) of a work
– Other title(s) in addition to the title or form of title
chosen as the preferred title for the work
10. 171717
Terminology
• Access point – name, term, code, etc.
representing an entity
Examples:
Title of a work, a name of person, or corporate body
• Authorized access point – the standardized
access point representing an entity
Example:
110 2# $a Society of Linguists
181818
Terminology
• Authorized access point representing a
work
– Preferred title for the work preceded by
• Authorized access point representing the creator, a
person, family, or corporate body responsible for
the work
– May include additional elements if necessary
to distinguish one work from another
– May be the preferred title if no creator and no
conflict
Terminology
• For serials, often the authorized access
point is the preferred title if no creator in
1XX
• Conflict with the authorized access point of
another work?
– Add a term to distinguish and record
authorized access point in the 130 field
– Not limited to other serial works
19
11. Transcription vs. Recording
• ICP principle of representation = information
transcribed as found on the resource
• Other information may be manipulated when
recorded by the cataloger (either when taken
from the resource or from another source)
2020
International cataloging principles:
http://www.ifla.org/publications/statement-of-
international-cataloguing-principles
Transcribed manifestation
elements
• Title proper and parallel title proper
• Other title information
• Statement of responsibility
• Edition information
• Numbering information
• Place of publisher, distributor, manufacturer
• Name of publisher, distributor, manufacturer
• Series information other than ISSN
2121
Reminders about transcribed elements
• Do not abbreviate full forms of found
information
• Generally, do not convert one form of found
information to another form
• Generally, do not omit information (e.g., part
of a publisher name, responsible bodies
beyond three in a statement of responsibility)
2525
12. Exceptions and options
• Omit numbering from title proper or parallel
title (use mark of omission wherever in title)
• Some alternatives allow some conversions
and some omissions for some elements
2626
Recorded manifestation elements
• Date of publication, distribution, manufacture
• Copyright date
• Mode of issuance
• Frequency
• Identifier of the manifestation (e.g., ISSN
usually)
• Key title
• Notes about element (e.g., source of title)
• Issue or part used as basis of description
(DBO and LIC)
• Notes about changes over time

Basis for identification of the
resource
• If issues or parts are sequentially
numbered, use the lowest numbered issue
or part available
• If issues are unnumbered or not
sequentially numbered, use the issue or
part with the earliest date of issue
• CONSER will continue to use the phrase
“Description based on”
888
Preferred source: one or more pages,
leaves, etc.; or images (2.2.2.2)
• Title page
• If there is none, use the first of the following
(or images of them) that bears a title:
– Cover
– Caption
– Masthead
– Colophon
• If none of these have a title, use another
source within the resource, giving preference
to sources where information is formally
presented
Preferred source – other resources
(2.2.2.4)
• Permanently affixed label
(e.g., label on a CD)
or:
• “Embedded metadata in textual form that
contains a title”
(e.g., metadata embedded in an MP3 audio file)
• Failing these: Prefer sources that formally
present the data
9
20. Source of Description (2.20.2.3)
Always provide:
–588 description based on note
–Source of title with 588 combined with
description based on note
–588 Latest issue consulted note
10

Retrospective cataloging (2.2.2)
“Serial Retrospective Exception” LC-PCC PS 2.2.2
– Use stable title, even if from a less-preferred source
–Consider that a serial lacks title page if the title page
is added to or dropped from issues
12
21. Summary
• RDA decision-making process same as AACR2:
– Determine that the resource is a serial
– Use first or earliest available issue
– Prefer sources of information as instructed
• Provide information about your cataloging:
– Issue used
– Source of title
– Latest issue consulted
– Provider and date viewed (for online serials)

• For preliminary or trial issues of serials,
"volume 0," etc., see LC-PCC PS for
2.1.2.3
• First issue lacks numbering, but later
issues have numbering?
[Part 1]
Subsequent issues numbered: Part 2, Part 3,
etc.
57
46. Summary
• Remember when to transcribe and when
you can record with alteration to data
• Several fields developed for RDA
– 336 = content
– 337 = media
– 338 = carrier
• Use the most complete numbering that
appears on source
58
47. Session 3b: Quiz: Extent, Frequency, and Numbering
Write “T” (True) or “F” (False) next to each statement.
1. ___ Extent is core in RDA for a serial only if the serial is ceased. However,
CONSER practice is still to provide extent for tangible non-print serials.
2. ___ Dimensions of carriers such as CD-ROMs must be given in centimeters
under RDA.
3. ___ Content type is a controlled, closed vocabulary. Examples include text,
computer dataset, still image.
4. ___ Frequency is a controlled, closed vocabulary. Examples include annual,
monthly, bimonthly, and quarterly.
5. ___ For numbering data, RDA gives no guidance on preferring a source with
the most complete information.
6. ___ For dates that are ranges of years, give the full date regardless of how the
date appears. For example, if the coverage date range appears as 2008-9, record
2008/2009.
7. ___ For numbering consisting of year and part of a year, give the year and then
the part. For example, a quarterly publication with numbering 3-2012 would be
recorded as 2012-3.

– RDA 2.3.2.12.2
• Major and minor changes
– RDA 2.3.2.13
– LC-PCC PS general guidelines and LC-PCC
PS for minor change categories
• Title changes: no change in practice!
9
Minor title changes (2.3.2.13.2, 2.20.2) ,
parallel (2.3.3.5), and variant titles (2.20.2.4)
Coding for CONSER core:
– 245 00 $a Title

264 3 1 (most recent)
• $3 Coverage [recorded]
• $a Place : $b Publisher [transcribed]
• $c Date (if ceased) [transcribed] 12
Exercise: Publisher
After this record was created, the cataloger received some additional issues (though
not a complete run). Here are some changes discovered:
--By the “February 1990” issue, the place of publication moved to: Tonawanda, NY
--By the “February 1991” issue, the place of publication moved to: Las Vegas, NV
The Raving Lunatic Society remained the publisher throughout the life of the serial.
The latest issue received was: Volume 7, issue #1 (May 15, 1993).
Fixed field: 008/15-17 (Ctry): nyu

– 310 ## $a Frequency, $b coverage [current]
– 321 ## $a Frequency, $b coverage [oldest]
– 321 ## $a Frequency, $b coverage [next]
15
Numbering (2.6.1, 2.20.5)
• Coding: Partially transcribed
• Reminder: If numbering starts over without
series designation, supply [new series]
• Options:
– 362 1# $a If have first/last in range
– 515 ## $a In all situations
Example 1
362 1# $a Began with: No 7 (année judiciaire 1998/1999); ceased with no 13
(année judiciaire 2004/2005).
--------------------------------
Example 2
362 1# $a Began with December 1971.
515 ## $a Issues for <May 2010-> called: <2nd series, volume 1, issue 5->
16
92. Issuing body (2.20.3.6.2)
• CONSER practice: [introductory word(s)]:
[information], [dates]
Example
550 ## $a Issued by: Bureau of Vital Statistics,
1964–1977; by: Bureau of Vital Records, 1978–
17
Other considerations
• CEG B4
• FF Dates: If most recent issue (or known issue) is
older than 3 years:
– 008/06 (Status): u
– 008/11-14 (Date2): uuuu
• Basis of identification: If have later issue than was
previously been entered:
588 ## $a Latest issue consulted: … .
588 ## $a Latest issue consulted: … (publisher’s
Web site, viewed …).
18
Expression-level change (7.29.2.3)
• So far, ALL changes can be accommodated
• Types of change common to serials:
– Language
– Script
• Examples:
546 ## $a Volumes 1-3 in French, volumes 4-7 in
German.
546 ## $a In Azerbaijani (Cyrillic), <1999->;
(Latin), <2002-2003>
19
93. Work-level change (Chapter 6)
• Parallel language titles appearing on later
issues (6.2.3.4)
• Variant titles that differ significantly from
the preferred title and might reasonably be
sought (6.2.3.3)
• Nature of the content (7.2.1.3)
20
Hybrid: Editing AACR2/CSR Records
• Documentation: Post RDA Implementation
Guidelines and Standards
http://www.loc.gov/aba/pcc/
• May follow RDA conventions to maintain
AACR2/CSR records
• May add (or add to) 336-338 fields
• Should create RDA NARs if additional name
headings are needed (e.g., issuing body)
• Many changes can be made without re-describing
serial using RDA
21

23
Editing pre-AACR2 records using RDA
• Watch for: Partial title that needs to be
reconsidered
• Before editing:
– Create DBO to reflect issue used for
description if known, based on 362, 936, and
any other data:
– Remove 936
• Update the record, add 588 Latest issue
consulted note 24
Exercise: Pre-AACR Maintenance
Issue: Volume 35, Number 2, May 2012
Published: Baltimore, Maryland, USA * The Johns Hopkins University
Press
25
95. Exercise: Pre-AACR Maintenance
26
Pre-AACR Maintenance
If not converting to RDA at a minimum:
• Add 264 31 if needed for current
publishing statement
• Do not recode or change an existing 260
• Add additional fields from latest issue
– e.g. 710’s 550 note to cite issues
• Add 588 “Latest issue consulted note”
Would you re-describe to RDA if …?
• CSR CONSER Record: e-Level 8 (ISSN Pre-pub)

115. Appendix: Excerpt from “Copy Cataloging Using RDA” by Tim Carlton
http://www.loc.gov/catworkshop/RDA%20training%20materials/LC%20RDA%20Traini
ng/CopyCatFINAL.doc
Modifying Legacy pre-RDA Records
AACR2/CSR RECORDS
Documentation for working with AACR2 and CSR records has been approved by the
PCC. The documentation allows PCC members and OCLC to add elements such as the
264 and the 33X to existing AACR2 records without converting them to RDA. While
PCC members and OCLC will use these guidelines to update AACR2 records with RDA
elements, LC staff are not required to “hybridize” existing AACR2 records with RDA
MARC 21 elements. . [Why not? Because OCLC will be making these changes to
AACR2 records in the near future.] However, staff finding such records should leave the
elements in place if found in copy records
The types of changes staff may see on AACR2 records are outlined in the PCC
Guidelines for Enhancing and Editing non-RDA Records for Serials:
http://www.loc.gov/aba/pcc/rda/PCC%20RDA%20guidelines/Hybrid-Guidelines-
Serials-Post-Impl.docx
Serials staff should generally follow this guidance when working with copy:
CONSER authenticated records should not be converted to RDA, except:
• Prepublication records (EL/8)
• CONSER minimal level records (if being upgraded to encoding level blank)
Unauthenticated serial records that are being authenticated as CONSER/PCC records
should be converted to RDA when authenticated.
Additionally:
In maintaining CONSER existing AACR2 records, LC staff may add new
publishing information based on a later issue using the 264 field without
converting existing 260 fields to RDA.
A cataloger should create RDA NARs if name headings are needed (e.g., issuing

BONUS QUESTION: How would you code the publisher statement for Archaeometry?
Journal called Archaeometry lacks title page.
On cover: Published by Wiley‐Blackwell for University of Oxford in association with Gesellschaft für
Naturwissenschaftliche Archäologie, ARCHAEOMETRIE, the Society for Archaeological Sciences and
Associazione Italiana di Archeometria.
On page 3 of cover: Archaeometry is published by Blackwell Publishing Ltd, 9600 Garsington Road, Oxford,
OX4 2DQ, UK. Blackwell Publishing Ltd was acquired by John Wiley & Sons in February 2007.
Printed in Singapore by Ho Printing Pte Ltd.
On back cover: Wiley‐Blackwell
___ 264 #1 $a Oxford, UK : $b : Published by Wiley‐Blackwell for University of Oxford in association with
Gesellschaft für Naturwissenschaftliche Archäologie, ARCHAEOMETRIE, the Society for Archaeological
Sciences and Associazione Italiana di Archeometria.
___ 264 #1 $a Oxford, UK : $b Wiley‐Blackwell
___ 264 #1 $a Oxford, UK : $b Blackwell Publishing Ltd

264 #3 $a Singapore : $b Ho Printing Pte Ltd.
The choice that the cataloger will make may depend on how the information is perceived:
Is the phrase on the cover a formal publisher statement or a descriptive phrase?
Is there any reason to prefer the information on p. 3 of cover or the information on p. 4 of cover?
The final option, while appropriate according to RDA, is probably the least useful, since the printer for a modern
commercial publication is unlikely to assist in identification of the journal.
There is no clearly ‘right’ answer, so give yourself bonus points for working on this!
