A Little Bit About AACR2AACR was developed in the 1960s, revised in 1978, with a final revision in 2002.
AACR2 was last updated in 2005. (7 years ago)
Has two main sections:
1. Description – broken down by chapter for each type of material
2. Access – for the creation of access points within the cataloging of the itemSlide3
A Little Bit About MARC
MARC
stands for
MAchine Readable Cataloging
MARC was developed in the late 1960s as a way to enable libraries to share information at a reasonable cost and in a computer readable format
MARC is a computerized way of recording information (Metadata)
To hold this Metadata, MARC uses Tag Fields to indicate placement of the Metadata
Ex
. 1xx Tag Field = Main Entry
245
Tag Field = Main Title
250
Tag Field = Edition Statement
The future capabilities of MARC were seen as a success for libraries so in a later version MARC21 it took on extra facets to fit the needs of AACR2. Hence why extra Tag Fields are added.Slide4
Since AACR2 and MARC have worked for so long, WHY Change??
They Don’t Work
Any Longer!!!Slide5
The Cataloging Rules have become out of date.
They don’t work well with new ways to link metadata.
Also, AACR2 is written in chapter sequence by format of the item. It does not allow for new formats to be added or for combined materials. Example: Playaways, Electronic Resources, MP3s or MP4s, and multi-format items.
Searching has changed. Patrons no longer use a traditional card catalog. They now use ILS systems that allow for keyword searching and some aspects of the semantic web.Slide6
SO WHAT’S NEXT????Slide7
FRBR
Functional Requirements for Bibliographic RecordsSlide8
It is a conceptual model. (Not a set of Cataloging Rules)
Developed in 1997 by IFLA.
It is meant to help the patron find, identify, select, and obtain information.
(Patron Centric)
FRBR is meant to help analyze information into Entities, Attributes of the Entity, and Relationships between Entities.Slide9
FRBR Relationships: (GROUP 1)
Work
-
(What is imagined by the Creator)
is realized
through
Expression
–
(How the work is
written)
is embodied
in
Manifestation –
(The produced work
)
is exemplified
by
Item
–
(This is the physical item
on
the shelf)Slide10
This concept is know by the Acronym
WEMI
.
Which can sometimes be confused with
WAMMY
.
FRBR Relationships: (GROUP 1) Slide11
An Example of FRBRWork
Is the intellectual property of the Creator.
Hamlet –
As thought up by William Shakespeare.
Expression
The realization of the work.
Hamlet –
written down in Shakespeare’s hand.Slide12
An Example of FRBRManifestation
The physical embodiment of the work!
(Carrier- BOOK)
Item
The copy you find on your shelf. WVU’s Copy!Slide13
FRBR is the start of when Catalogers and Programmers begin to really look
at
linked
data
and the future of how catalogs will be structured.Slide14
So How Will This Conceptual Model Create Structured Metadata?
Introducing…
RDA –
R
esource
D
escription and
A
ccessSlide15
RDA is the new cataloging standard that has been developed by the Joint Steering Committee for Revision of AACR2R.
RDA incorporates the principles of the FRBR conceptual model.
RDA is a living web document/standard. It can easily be updated and modified to meet the changing needs of Cataloging and Metadata.
RDA was fully implemented March 31, 2013 by Library of Congress, OCLC, National Libraries and other libraries have or are beginning to implement as we speak.Slide16
So what is the difference between AACR2 and RDA – Patron View
Bibliographic Record in AACR2
AACR2 contains Abbreviations
Use of the c – to signify copyrightSlide17
So what is the difference between AACR2 and RDA – Patron View
Bibliographic Record in AACR2
Records contains a GMD (
General material
designation)
Contains abbreviation et. al. Slide18
So what is the difference between RDA and AACR2 – Patron View
Bibliographic Record in RDA
Mostly no more use of abbreviations
Use of the © symbol instead of c.
Addition of Content, Media, and Carrier Types – (MARC 336-338 Fields) – Added to All Records instead of GMD for only non-book formats.
Addition of a Relator term to Creators NameSlide19
So what is the difference between RDA and AACR2 – Patron View
Statements
relating to the publication, printing, distribution, issue, release, or production of a work.
(MARC 264 no longer a 260)
The information is now separated to allow for better use and easier understanding.
Bibliographic
Record in RDASlide20
So what is the difference between RDA and AACR2 – Patron View
Carrier Characteristics
This includes information on:
Sound Characteristics
Projection Characteristics of Movie Image
Video Characteristics
Digital File Characteristics
These are the 344-347
MARC fields
Bibliographic
Record in RDASlide21
Other Stuff that May be Seen In the Patron View of an RDA Bibliographic Record
Differences
in
Capitalization - No longer will everything be lower case except for Proper terms and the beginning of titles.
Ex. AACRC2 – Legendary locals of Huntington West Virginia / James E. Casto.
RDA – LEGENDARY LOCALS OF HUNTINGTON WEST VIRGINIA / JAMES E. CASTO.
No more
abbreviations – RDA still allows for some abbreviations like in. for inches. – But all the Latin ones are gone. – So bye-bye: et. al. (
et
alia), s.n. (sine nomine), or s.l. (sine loco).
cm
is a symbol and
not
an
abbreviation, so it will not have a period following unless there is a series title.
Relator terms will now be used to the relation of a person to the particular resource to which they are attributed.
Ex. Brandon Brooks – is the producer of a movie, now you will see in an Added Author authority tracing that looks like
Added Author: Brandon Brooks, producer.Slide22
Other Stuff that May be Seen In the Patron View of an RDA Bibliographic Record
Statement of Responsibility – Take it as you see it. If you see
Dr. John Smith, University of Edinboro
on title page then that is what will appear on Catalog record.
Errors in a title will not have [sic] in title. They will now be written incorrectly and then alternate title will be created.
EX. AACR2 –
Pushnig
[sic] daisies
Corrected – Pushing daisies
RDA –
Pushnig
daisies
Corrected – Pushing daisies
There will be differences in how the Subject Heading for the Bible will appear
Ex. AACR2 – Bible. O.T.
RDA – Bible. New Testament
“No”
more Rule of Three
? – This means that many authors can be listed, we don’t stop at three and they can all be traced for authorities.Slide23
Example of Statement of Responsibility
Name as appears on title page
Name as appears in statement of responsibility Slide24
Example of “NO
”
Rule of Three
There are 6 contributors:
Larry Blocher
Eugene Corporon
Ray Cramer
Tim Lautzenheiser
Edward Lisk
Richard Miles
In AACR2 the only Person who would have been listed is Richard Miles and the rest would have been et. al.
In RDA they all appear in the Title Entry and all are traced as Added Authors.
Also notice the use of relator terms added to each name
. Slide25
Parallel TitlesAACR2
Parallel Titles are treated in a tier hierarchy – the first parallel title listed and then any parallel title that is in English. Titles in other languages are not listed after the English Parallel Title.
RDA
All Parallel Titles can be listed.Slide26
Parallel Titles – AACR2
Parallel Titles are treated in a tier hierarchy – the first parallel title listed and then any parallel title that is in English. No titles in other languages are listed after the English Parallel Title.Slide27

A Little About the Content Type, Media Type, and Carrier Type (336-338 Fields )
Content Type (336) - The form of communication through which a work is expressed.
Ex. Notated Music
Spoken Word
Still Image
Text
Two-dimensional Moving Image Slide29
A Little About the Content Type, Media Type, and Carrier Type (336-338 Fields )
Media Type (337) - Media type reflects the general type of intermediation device required to view, play, run, etc., the content of a resource. (Refers to the 007 field position 00.)
Ex. Computer
Unmediated
Video Slide30
A Little About the Content Type, Media Type, and Carrier Type (336-338 Fields )
Carrier Type (338) - Carrier type reflects the format of the storage medium and housing of a carrier in combination with the media type (which indicates the intermediation device required to view, play, run, etc., the content of a resource).
Ex. Volume
Videodisc
Slide
Audio DiscSlide31
A Little About the Content Type, Media Type, and Carrier Type (336-338 Fields )
The below link will take you to a document created by Cathy Lamoureaux from the Carnegie Library of Pittsburgh. In this document she breaks down the 336-338 fields into individual sets to show how a specific type of item will be represented in these fields
https://skydrive.live.com/view.aspx?resid=7160219E1C1E876E!150&app=WordPdf&authkey=!AAyi2x45qmdrqTY
Ex. Music CD
336 Performed music
337 Audio
338 Audio disc
DVD
336 Two-dimensional moving image
337 Video
338 VideodiscSlide32
But the Biggest thing about RDA Bibliographic Records is…
They are to live peacefully with AACR2 Bibliographic Records in an ILS. Slide33
So what is the future of Metadata and Catalogs???
Semantic Web
and
BibFrameSlide34
Semantic Web
The Semantic Web is a new way of looking at the Internet and how it is pieced together.
No longer will we be looking at the web as a flat surface of one page linking to the next, but as a bunch of snippets of information that can be pulled together to create new, flexible, and more versatile structures.
The biggest term to remember about the Semantic Web is a
‘TRIPLE.’
This is a way of connecting information together to allow for a more natural language approach to searching. It used principles based on
RDF – Resource Description Framework.
You may hear people talking about ‘linked data.’ This is what they are referring to. Slide35
BibFrame
Bibframe is standard that is being developed by the Library of Congress as a replacement to MARC.
This standard is looking at using the a ‘Linked Data’ model to better utilize Metadata. (Semantic Web)
Currently it is
using XML
Tagging to create ‘Linked Data’ records. Slide36
