| Sažetak: | Coming "Soon": RDA By 2013, when RDA implementation had begun in earnest, I was in another small academic library, leading our collection services (i.e., technical services) unit and supervising one cataloger. [...]I attended the Program for Cooperative Cataloging's (PCC) "Demystifying BIBCO" webinar, their first BIBCO Virtual Forum of the year, on January 16, 2025. Over the course of their presentations and the Q&A session, panelists discussed various aspects of the PCC's Monographic Bibliographic Record Program (BIBCO), including training, paths to participation, and institutional membership; the intersection of BIBCO with catalogers' day-to-day work; and the BIBCO Standard Record and its continuing development under RDA. Overall, I am left feeling more sanguine about the prospect of ultimately performing actual cataloging in compliance with Official RDA, although I am still not enamored with its content, presentation, and cost. 1 additionally note that the current draft of the Official RDA BSR retains for the most part the divisions provided in the BSR for Original RDA, even though they are based on the chapter divisions of Original RDA, since they are useful in sorting and gathering elements in a logical manner that allows catalogers to find the information they want more easily," suggesting that I am not alone in my difficulty with navigating and comprehending Official RDA from the source |
