[Arakawa, Steven]

Some new training materials made available by the Oxford Library Information System. I will probably have a link added to the Tools and Resources page in the RDA section.

Subject: [RDA-L] Bodleian/OLIS RDA materials

Dear colleagues,

The Bodleian Libraries and Oxford Library Information System are pleased to be able to make their inhouse RDA documentation publicly available at http://www.bodleian.ox.ac.uk/our-work/cataloguing.  It includes brief transfer training materials for experienced cataloguers and comprehensive materials for training from scratch and for reference, all available under a Creative Commons Attribution 3.0 license.

Because we have a very large number of cataloguers scattered over many libraries, some of whom do only small amounts of cataloguing, our documentation is designed to be fairly free-standing.  We have to keep contact sessions to the minimum, and we do not expect all cataloguers to gain a detailed knowledge of FRBR or of the RDA Toolkit.

We benefited greatly from seeing other agencies' materials when we were planning our RDA implementation, and we hope that our materials may be of some use or interest to agencies who are currently planning their own implementation.  Comments and corrections are very welcome (css at bodleian.ox.ac.uk<mailto:css at bodleian.ox.ac.uk>).

Best wishes,
Bernadette
