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:
