Copy cataloging of digital resources using RDA
May 19-21
1:30 - 3:30p
Here is your chance to work with RDA (Resource Description and Access) as 
applied to the copy cataloging of digital resources. This hands-on 
workshop teaches participants how to catalog digital resources using such 
tools as the RDA toolkit, the Library of Congress-Program for Cooperative 
Cataloging Policy Statements and Library of Congress Subject Headings 
Manual. All forms of digital resources, virtual materials, such as 
websites, eBooks, eSerials and downloadable audio books, music and video 
files, as well as physical media, such as video games, CD-ROMs and other 
computer disks will be addressed. The class will address copy cataloging 
in the MARC format. Sign up here:

Original cataloging of sound recordings using RDA
May 27-29
2:00 - 4:00p
This workshop teaches participants how to catalog sound recordings (CDs, 
MP3s and cassettes, both musical and nonmusical), using such tools as RDA 
and Library of Congress Subject Headings Manual. The class will address 
original cataloging in the MARC format. The instruction will cover issues 
like the chief source of information, physical description, main entry, 
and choice of additional access points. In addition, participants will 
learn the MARC fixed and variable fields for sound recordings, and will 
study the relationships among these fields. Several MARC record examples 
will be examined, and a number of hands-on exercises will be included. The 
booklet for this workshop contains RDA rules combined with MARC coding 
information. The online version of OCLC Bibliographic Formats and 
Standards will also be used. Register here:
