32. RDA in Spain
In this report that surveyed 128 libraries from
different environments, we see that the adoption of
the RDA rules in cataloging remains quite marginal in
Spain : only 4% of the libraries surveyed are
currently using RDA while 14% expect to implement
RDA in the near future (but 83% haven’t taken any
decision regarding the implementation of RDA).
Although we have to mention that 32% of the
university libraries surveyed are expecting to use
RDA.

Cataloging & Metadata Librarian
American University of Sharjah, UAE
In the late spring of 2012, the American University
of Sharjah (AUS) Library’s Technical Services
department began assessing RDA’s expected
impact on the library’s catalog and internal workflow.
Of great interest to the department was:
36. AUS Experiences
1- the ease of modifying our integrated library system to accept new
RDA records
2- the existence of RDA records in our system
3- whether existing AACR2 records would need to be re-cataloged to
match RDA conventions
4- the usefulness of making Content, Media and Carrier fields
viewable to our user community
5- RDA's impact on the library’s original cataloging of Arabic-
language materials
37. Cont.
1- Updating our ILS
The AUS Library employs Millennium, the integrated library system
(ILS) by Innovative Interfaces, Inc.
Innovative offers its subscribers a free, three-week service
commitment to review a library’s system configuration for RDA
specifications
internally validating the MARC rules for all new RDA fields
The loss of our local modifications proved to be too much of a risk, and
it was decided we would undertake the responsibility of updating our
ILS for RDA ourselves.
38. Cont.
2- Compatibility with Existing Records
the AUS Library has 192,000 print and electronic
items in its collection, with over 140,000 holdings
records stored in OCLC
Roughly 90 percent of the library’s records for
English materials are vendor-supplied, with the
remaining 10 percent reasonably split between copy-
cataloging and original cataloging.
Because of this reliance upon vendor records, the
Technical Services department reached out to its
primary suppliers, Coutts and Yankee Book Peddler
(YBP), in Fall of 2012 to request more information
about their plans for distributing RDA cataloging

RDA instructions (RDA 0.11.1) "designed for use in an international
context
Agencies creating data for use in a different language or script
context may modify such instructions to reflect their own language
or script preferences and replace the English-language terms
specified in RDA with terms appropriate for use in their context.
Authorized translations of RDA will do likewise.

55. Linked Data & RDA
On July 16, 2012, Zepheira co-founder and President
Eric Miller appeared at a BIBFRAME Update Forum, held
at the Library of Congress. When asked about the future
framework and how it would connect with RDA, he
replied: "Does Linked Data need RDA? No. I mean there
are a lot of different communities that are using Linked
Data right now that have never heard of RDA. […] We're
creating a pretty high barrier for that outside community
to start connecting into."
