TIP OF THE DAY
Whenever we recode an AACR2 NAR to RDA, we should also re-evaluate the
record (especially the heading) to see if anything needs to be revised.
Order of subfields k and l in Preferred Titles
QUESTION: What is order
of subfields k and l in preferred titles.
For example …$t Plays. $k Selections. $l Hindi.
ANSWER: Under RDA it has been determined that $k Selections is an attribute of a work and language ($l) is an attribute of an expression. So $k must preceed $l
[Answer provided by Ana Lupe Cristán]
For example …$t Plays. $k Selections. $l Hindi.
ANSWER: Under RDA it has been determined that $k Selections is an attribute of a work and language ($l) is an attribute of an expression. So $k must preceed $l
[Answer provided by Ana Lupe Cristán]
<<<----->>>>
EXAMPLE: For selected plays of a Panjabi author, translated into Hindi:
[240]-10 ‡a Plays. ‡k Selections. ‡l Hindi.
Publication Date and Copyright Date
If the record has both the publication and copyright dates, then the
008/06 should be "t" and the 008/11-14 should have the copyright
date. See LC-PCC PS 2.8.6.6 for examples.

Identifying Original and Translation in same resource
QUESTION:
This is in regards to 2011352604, which contains both the original text in Sanskrit and the Hindi translation. In AACR2, we would have had a 240 of Kalyāṇakāraka. $l Hindi & Sanskrit. In RDA, we would not have a 240. Instead, in theory, we would give 2 700s (as in the Mail Carrier example from the class materials):
700 02 ‡a Ugrādityācārya, ‡d 8th/9th century. ‡t Kalyāṇakāraka.
700 02 ‡a Ugrādityācārya, ‡d 8th/9th century. ‡t Kalyāṇakāraka. ‡l Hindi.
However, in this case, the 1st 700 would really result in the same N/T string as the 100/245 combo. So is it still required?
ANSWER:
Yes, two 700 name/title analytics. In some cases the preferred title may be the same as the 245 title proper, but in many other cases it won't be. We just thought it would always be easier to say "make the analytics" than to say "sometimes you do, and sometimes you don’t". So it may be redundant in some cases.

Revisions to CSM due to RDA
The Classification and Shelflisting Manual (CSM) contains the policies on assigning LC classification numbers and LC book numbers (i.e., shelflisting). Originally written in the 1980s and last updated in 2010, the CSM reflects the AACR2 environment.
The U.S. national libraries’ decision to implement Resource Description and Access (RDA) led the Policy and Standards Division (PSD) to review the CSM and determine which instruction sheets needed to be revised to reflect RDA instructions. Generally, the text was updated to ensure consistency with past classification and shelflisting practice, and new examples were chosen.
Specialists in PSD also took this opportunity to reevaluate some long-standing practices both to simplify them and to make them more sustainable in today’s linked, global, environment.
The priority was to first revise the instruction sheets that are most heavily affected by the implementation of RDA. Those sheets are now provided as PDFs on the ABA website at http://www.loc.gov/catdir/cpso/csm_instruction_sheets.html. PSD will also post additional instruction sheets there as the revisions are completed.
PSD is planning staff briefings on the policy changes, the times and dates of which will be announced in the coming days.
The brief descriptions of significant policy changes provided below are intended for guidance only. The full instruction sheets should be consulted for instructions and examples.
F 175 Editions The instructions for classifying simultaneously published editions were clarified.
F 632 Literary Authors Individual literary authors born before 1925 and anonymous literary works published before 1925 must now be printed in the schedule (i.e., numbers must be proposed for them). The cutoff dates had been 1870 and 1899, respectively. A section was added to clarify the classification of criticism and commentaries about an individual author’s works.
F 633 Literary Authors: Subarrangement of Works Compilations are no longer classified either as collections or as separate works based on whether the author is still living. Instead, the assignment of an RDA conventional collective title is now the sole determinant. The caption Selections, which is used frequently in the literary author tables, will be revised to Selections. Extracts. Passages in order to clarify the distinction between Selected works and Selections.
F 634 Literary Collections The treatment of a literary collection versus a collection in which one of the works is predominant was clarified.
G 140 Dates The examples of date formats were updated to reflect RDA instructions. Policy on the use of work letters was revised. New editions of works entered under corporate body should be assigned work letters beginning with b if necessary, to distinguish between editions published in the same year. This change makes the policy for corporate bodies consistent with the policy for works entered under a personal name or title. [The instruction to use the workmark a for serials was not changed.]
G 150 Translations Several languages were added to the Translation Table. Polyglot was redefined to mean that there are two or more translations present within a resource (previously, three translations were necessary). The Cuttering practice for translations in which the language is not listed in the Translation Table was revised. Instead of repurposing a Cutter extension in the Table, the language should be assigned a unique Cutter extension.

LCSH revisions due to RDA Phase 2 revisions
The RDA Phase 2 changes to the name authority file were completed on March 27, 2013, so the Library of Congress’ Policy and Standards Division will now begin to update LCSH authority records. PSD expects to complete the project by the end of April 2013.
Personal, corporate, and conference names, as well as titles and geographic headings (MARC 21 fields 100, 110, 111, 130, and 151), that are established in the name authority file and are also printed in LCSH are eligible for revision. Phrase headings and subdivisions that are based on names or titles (e.g., Food in the Koran; Future life—Koranic teaching) will also be revised as necessary.
This is a large project that must be undertaken in a systematic manner in order to find all of the affected records. LC catalogers and SACO participants are therefore requested to refrain from making proposals to update headings until after PSD announces the completion of the project.
At this time, PSD is not planning a wholesale revision to those LC subject headings that include abbreviations that are not permitted in RDA, which chiefly appear in a subfield $y (e.g., Egypt—History—Early Dynastic Period, ca. 3100-ca. 2686 B.C.).

RDA Policies for Library of Congress
LC policies for a few topics recently discussed by the ABA Management Team. These policies either confirm that the interim policies LC staff have been following are still in place, or note where policies will be different in the post-March period.
The topics covered are:
Policy 1: RDA Acceptable Authority Records after March 31, 2013
Policy 2: Monographs Imported from OCLC (including copy cataloging)
Policy 3: CIP Verification
Policy 4: Working with Existing Serial Records
Policy 5: Added Volumes for Multipart Monographs
Policy 6: Manual Hybridization of AACR2 Records with RDA Elements
All staff involved with creating and updating LC/NACO authority records should pay particular attention to Policy 1 on the treatment of authority records. Policies 2-6 are primarily applicable to ABA and other processing units choosing to follow them.
These policies are also posted at http://www.loc.gov/aba/rda/pdf/rda-policies-for-lc.pdf
Phase 2 Changes to the LC/NACO Authority FileAlso note that the Phase 2 changes to the LC/NACO authority file were completed this week-- 371,942 records were updated as part of this process. Should you encounter one of these revised headings in your normal work, please use the new authorized form in your bibliographic record. A similar automated change is being planned for updating headings in bibliographic records, but until this process is complete, headings will be out of synchronization between the authority record and bibliographic records. Until the automated changes to bibliographic records are complete, it is not necessary to perform bibliographic file maintenance on existing bibliographic records, nor report the discrepancies to PSD.
Acronyms as variants in RDA NARs
Would the same rules for qualifying a corporate body apply to both the heading and the variants? For example, would this be appropriate under RDA:
110 2_ Progressive Artists Group (Jaipur, India)
410 2_ PAG (Jaipur, India)
We would never qualified "PAG" under AACR2 when it's used as a variant form. When it's used as a heading, of course, then we would qualify. What about in RDA?
ANSWER:
We had a very specific LCRI practice that basically forbade the adding of qualifiers to many kinds of references, we got rid of those restrictions on variants because they represented an exception that wasn't really important and only caused confusion. 11.13.2.1 tells you that you can add the same additions to variants as to authorized access points.
For personal names see RDA Rule 9.19.2.1
(Reproduction of Question and Answer from experts from LC)

RDA Rule 11.13.2.1 : General Guidelines on Constructing Variant Access Points to Represent Corporate Bodies [This rule suggests to Make additions to the name, if considered important for identification]:
- Addition to a Name Not Conveying the Idea of a Corporate Body
- Place Associated with the Body
- Associated Institution
- Date Associated with the Body
- Type of Jurisdiction
- Other Designation Associated with the Body
- Number, Date, and Location of a Conference, Etc.

Revised LC-PCC Policy for Fuller form of name (9.19.1.4, option)
From: Program for Cooperative Cataloging [mailto:PCCLIST@LISTSERV.LOC.GOV] On Behalf Of Reser, Dave
Sent: Thursday, February 21, 2013 5:23 PM
To: PCCLIST@LISTSERV.LOC.GOV
Subject: [PCCLIST] Revised LC-PCC Policy for Fuller form of name (9.19.1.4, option)
Dear PCC members--
Training documentation will be updated to reflect the change in policy.
Thanks, Becky Culbertson (PCC SCS chair) and Dave Reser (LC PSD)
Sent: Thursday, February 21, 2013 5:23 PM
To: PCCLIST@LISTSERV.LOC.GOV
Subject: [PCCLIST] Revised LC-PCC Policy for Fuller form of name (9.19.1.4, option)
Dear PCC members--
The policy related to the optional use of the RDA element "Fuller form of name" in authorized access points for persons (RDA 9.19.1.4, option) has been the subject of debate by more than one PCC Task Group, the PCC Policy Committee, and listservs such as PCCLIST. LC and PCC have agreed to a new shared policy for this instruction (a change from the previous LC policy). Because of the high level of interest in this topic, and the postponement of the February release of the RDA Toolkit where it would have been published (http://www.rdatoolkit.org/blog/517 ), we have taken the exceptional step of mounting the revised policy so that it may be applied immediately by catalogers. Until it is published in the Toolkit, the policy will reside in the Section "Preliminary Publication of LC-PCC PS" at http://www.loc.gov/aba/rda/lcps_access.html (the revised policy is also included below).
Thanks, Becky Culbertson (PCC SCS chair) and Dave Reser (LC PSD)
LC‐PCC PS for 9.19.1.4, Option (Fuller form of name)
New Authority Records
LC practice/PCC practice for Optional addition: Apply the option to provide a fuller form of name if a part of the forename or surname used in the preferred name is represented by an initial or an abbreviation, if the cataloger considers it important for identification. Add unused forenames or surnames only if needed to distinguish one access point from another (see RDA 9.19.1.4).
Existing Authority Records
LC practice/PCC practice for Optional addition: Unless otherwise changing an existing heading (e.g., conflict), do not change an existing AACR2 or RDA heading merely to add or remove a fuller form of name.
