<p class="MsoNormal">“Resource Description & Access (RDA) Basics for Copy Catalogers,”
<a href="http://youtu.be/6IUyBaDdc8c">http://youtu.be/6IUyBaDdc8c</a><o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">It is 55 minutes long.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Our motivations for creating this video were multiple: here at Kent State University, the Technical Services Department needed a way to train new staff and graduate student assistants. Having them watch a video is more efficient than providing
face-to-face instruction for each new person. Second, results of a survey done in late 2012 showed that nearly a third of Ohio public library catalogers had never heard of RDA at the time of the survey.* We wanted to provide something to aid all kinds of
catalogers – public, school, you name it – in getting comfortable with RDA.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Please feel free to share this link with other discussion lists. I’d appreciate it especially if people would pass the link on to discussion lists for public and school librarians.<o:p></o:p></p>
