LANCR/ABRCN and OALT / ABO are pleased to present:

Oh, brave new RDA world! What the new cataloguing standard will mean for all library workers
Resource Description and Access (RDA), the new cataloguing standard and successor to AACR2, is due for release in late 2009, signalling a new direction for cataloguing rules and catalogue records. This information session will:

• Talk about the background and development of RDA
• Give a brief introduction to FRBR (Functional Requirements for Bibliographic Records) and FRAD (Functional Requirements for Authority Data), the conceptual models that underpin RDA
• Offer an examination of the major differences between RDA and AACR2
• Discuss planning for implementation
