[yul-naco] Latest guidelines for post-Day One RDA cataloging

[Arakawa, Steven]

One definite FAQ I encountered was: if we need to make a new NAR for a subordinate corporate body, and the primary body needs to be changed to RDA form, what do we do about the other subordinate body NARs? The answer is we don't have to update them, although we have the option to do so. 

Also, note that, at this point, PCC considers all NARs w/out the 667 warning to be rda, so a pcc rda record could have all headings backed up by previously established AACR2 NARs; I'm getting an idea of how LC copy cataloging is going to cope with the previously established headings issue. There are, however, a lot of cautionary statements about using unexamined "rda" NARs.
