New work or new expression?

FRBR: Group 2 entities & their attributes (mainly for NACO)

PersonTolstoy, Leo – Graf – 1828-1910 – Russian – male – writer of Anna Karenina etc. Corporate bodyHeinemann – founded by William Heinemann – 1890 – now owned by Pearson, Random House and Houghton Mifflin – headquarters in London and Portsmouth

N.H.FamilyWilliams – Philadelphia – prominent member, Benjamin, b. 1774 – Quakers - spiritualists Slide7

FRBR: Group 3 entities & their attributesConcept, object, event

not yet written – in principle would cover subject cataloguingPlacegrid reference – larger place – population – government – famous inhabitants (mainly for NACO records)Slide8

FRBR: relationshipsPrimary

: the WEMI hierarchy - a work realised in an expression, embodied in a manifestation, exemplified in an item.Relationships between G1 entities in different hierarchies: abridgement of, dramatisation of, commentary on, contained in, supplement to, libretto for, etc.

Relationships between G2

and

G1

entities

: author of, illustrator of, editor of, dedicatee of, publisher of, issuing body of, etc.

Relationships between

G2

entities; relationships to

G3

entities: not our problem.Slide9

FRBR: what difference will it make?Helps to explain history, vocabulary and structure of

RDAWill be the foundation for future non-MARC systems where each FRBR entity will have its own record and relationships will be displayed more clearly. These may provide more intuitive clustering in public-facing tools.Will not make much difference in MARC, but:

access points in MARC records can have extra subfields to hold relatorsa new edition is no longer automatically a new work – unless it has substantial intellectual/ artistic changes or a change to the team responsible for its intellectual/ artistic content, it is just a new expression; this means that you would use 130 or 240 rather than

7XX

to link to an earlier edition with a different title.Slide11

Publication and copyright datesUse one or more 264 fields instead of 260. Indicators show (1

st) order and (2nd) whether they contain publication, production, distribution, manufacture or copyright data.Do not combine publication and copyright in the same 264.Always give a publication date, even if conjectured from copyright date.

Always give a copyright date if available, in a separate 264.Give multiple copyright dates

only

if they apply to different types of material and the earlier date is for the most important type.

Use © instead of ‘c’ (‘copyright’ is also acceptable).

If publication and copyright dates are different, 008/06=‘t’.

Formats for dates have changed, e.g. instead of ’18--’ use ’[between 1800 and 1899]’.Slide17

Resource descriptionSourcesPRINCIPLE OF REPRESENTATION

OmissionsCapitalisationAbbreviationsNumbersPunctuationApproximations, corrections and clarificationsComplex physical descriptionsSlide25

Sources: main changes for booksSquare brackets

are used only for information taken from outside the resource itself.Dustjackets are now considered part of the resource.Title page verso is not a listed source, but will still often be preferred as ‘a source where information is formally presented’.

Parallel titles may be taken from anywhere in the resource.For more on preferred sources for multilingual materials, see RDA/MARC21 Module 4.Slide26

OmissionsRule of 3

abandoned; normally include the whole statement of responsibility and provide access points accordingly; but use judgement.Titles, qualifications and terms of address (‘Mr.’, ‘Dr.’, ‘Rev.’, Ph.D, S.J., etc.) are not omitted from statements of responsibility, but you may optionally

omit background information.Places and publishers are not tidied up very much.

If

the publication statement gives a larger place as well as a town,

include it, even

if not needed for

identification.

Do

not reduce the publisher’s name to the shortest internationally recognisable

form; retain

‘The’, ‘Press’, ‘plc’, etc

. and umbrella bodies.

Only the first place of publication and first publisher

are

required; no ‘

first place in the home country of the cataloguing agency’. Slide27

Omitting background infoSlide28

CapitalisationNo change for OLIS.RDA allows titles, etc. to be entered with the capitalisation of the resource or an inhouse system.If you download a record which has used one of these options, leave it unless preposterous.

Do not make a new record just because the capitalisation on the resource is different from that in the existing record.Slide29

Abbreviations and languageIn most cases

RDA does not abbreviate words (or use Latin):in 245: e.g. ‘[and six others]’, not ‘ ... [et al.]’.in 300: ‘pages’ and ‘illustrations’ rather than ‘p.’ and ‘ill.’ in 264, ‘[Place of publication not identified]’, etc.

In transcribed elements, any abbreviations found on the resource are retained.

The familiar

abbreviations for U.S. states, Canadian provinces, Australian territories and a few countries are still used

in qualifiers for smaller places, corporate bodies, etc. [RDA B.11].

What RDA calls ‘

metric symbols

’ such as ‘cm’, ‘mm’ are not considered as abbreviations, so are not followed by a full stop [B.5.2

] unless it is final punctuation.

Roman alphabet abbreviations

are still used in 300 fields for Dimensions and Duration (ft., in., hr., min., sec

.), in 8XX $v captions

and in a few specialist fields.Slide30

NumbersNumbers are usually transcribed as found, whether in words, arabic numerals or roman numerals.

Words are converted to arabic numerals in :Year of publication and copyright and year in which a degree was grantedNumbering within series or subseriesNumbering of leaves or pages [3.4.5.2]. Arabic numerals are still required in 8XX $v (because under authority control) but not in 490.

Most agencies have decided to copy roman numerals if found in date, but OLIS policy is to copy

them as found

and

add the arabic form in square brackets, e.g. ‘MCMXXX [

1930].Slide31

PunctuationRDA does not prescribe punctuation except within access points, so examples in Toolkit will not help.

We will continue to use familiar ISBD.There is a list of ISBD punctuation in Appendix D. LDR 18 should be coded ‘i’. This will generate ‘ISBD punct. included’ in Aleph Full view – beware of records without this coding.Do not replace ‘...’ in a title with ‘--’ or square brackets with round ones.Generally transcribe as found, but you can add e.g. commas for clarification.Slide32

Approximations, corrections, clarificationsImprecise or unknown information is always expressed in English words, not Latin abbreviations.

RDA rarely allows

cataloguers’ corrections or clarifications in square

brackets.

Statements

of responsibility, publishers’ names and series statements

are

supplied in square brackets only if

found

in a reliable external source

.

In

most cases cataloguers’ corrections and clarifications

are provided as

notes

(5XX or 246).Slide33

ClarificationsNo clarifications as other title information:

e.g. NOT: 245 00 $aMadame Butterfly :$b[programme] NOR: 245 10 $aThe life of Pi :$b[review].

Make a 5XX note instead.

Not (altogether) your problem In some NACO records:

Please continue to use existing NACO records for access points, even if they do not meet RDA standards; but tell BMAC. If you create a local AAP by RDA rules but there are bibs with an AAP for the same entity created by AACR2 rules, tell BMAC.Slide42

Main and added entriesRDA instructions are embedded in instructions for name-title access points.

Artists working as a corporate body may be main entry.For collaborations, first or most prominent creator is main entry, even if more than 3. Collaborators may do different jobs (e.g. lyricist & composer) but they create the whole work together rather than each creating separate parts.

Compilations by different creators,

i.e

.

resources consisting of substantial

freestanding

parts

(chapters

, papers, poems

,

artworks, etc.) created by

different

entities, are

always entered under

title. (Conferences and catalogues need care.)

All

important components of

compilations by a single creator

always have 7XX analytic

entries.

This includes multiple expressions of the same work, e.g. the same work in different languages
