![AACR2 to RDA Example
Example: book titled, Managing Bird Damage to Fruit and Other Horticultural Crops, coauthored by John
Tracy, Mary Bomford, Quentin Hart, Glen Saunders, and Ron Sinclair. (Example created by Adam Schiff at the
University of Washington Libraries: http://rdabasics.com/2012/09/10/specific-changes-from-aacr2-to-rda/)
AACR2 would code the book thusly in MARC:
245 00 $a Managing bird damage to fruit and other
horticultural crops / John Tracey … [et al.].
700 1_ $a Tracey, John Paul.
RDA codes the book in MARC this way:
100 1_ $a Tracey, John Paul, $e author.
245 10 $a Managing bird damage to fruit and other
horticultural crops / John Tracey, Mary Bomford, Quentin
Hart, Glen Saunders, Ron Sinclair.

LIS 653, Session 6: FRBR & Relationships
This document discusses FRBR (Functional Requirements for Bibliographic Records) and how it relates to RDA (Resource Description and Access). It begins by outlining the goals of understanding the FRBR model of relationships between bibliographic entities and how RDA uses FRBR as the basis for new cataloging rules. It then explains the FRBR model which organizes creative works, expressions, manifestations and items into groups and describes their relationships. It contrasts FRBR with traditional cataloging models and discusses how RDA updates some AACR2 rules to better align with FRBR.

- 12. FRBR Compared toOther Models One-entity model (an inventory) Each individual copy (or item) has its own record Two-entity model (currently common) Catalog records represent editions (FRBR manifestations) that may have multiple copies (items) Current catalog records are often at this level, with holdings information for each item (number of copies, call numbers) Three-entity model Catalog that uses consistent uniform titles Multiple expressions are not collocated Four-entity model (FRBR) Works/expressions are collocated Long results lists are compacted Easier for user who only cares about the work (i.e., “I want to read Jane Austen’s Emma, I don’t care what edition”) to quickly find all available items of that work Easier for user to find related works (i.e., movies adapted from books) V/FRBR test catalog: Scherzo: http://www.dlib.indiana.edu/projects/vfrbr/ Example: search for work “Moonlight Sonata” Previous Indiana catalog: list of over 100 results, displayed in reverse chronological order, included unrelated books

- 14. Changes in RDAfrom AACR2 (Benefits) Most changes (AACR2 to RDA) implemented with batch modifications Some require manual updates RDA organized according to entities (FRBR’s 3 groups) rather than format (AACR2) Move away from GMD (general material designation) Catalog format separately from content More flexibility, create records for new formats RDA better handles Group 2 entities (responsible persons/corporate bodies) Account for creators/contributors other than “authors” AACR2/MARC 245 statement of responsibility not explicit about responsibility (RDA is) Move away from “Rule of Three” (multiple authors)

- 16. Takeaways for FRBR& RDA FRBR is about relationships between entities RDA is a new catalog code (rules) based on the FRBR model of entities & relationships There is controversy over RDA (too much change, not enough change, just enough) Many (not all) libraries are gradually adopting RDA in their cataloging For now, MARC remains the record format/encoding standard As with AACR2 or metadata description rules, the basic principles of info org. remain the same: “Say what you see” – describe the info object Think about your collection’s users: How are they likely to search for this object? How can you make this object easy to discover?
Editor's Notes
- #4 Bibliographic record = record with descriptive information about a work (information object) that it represents Catalog = a group of records, a list of objects in a collection Model = determines how records are organized and created in a catalog (FRBR) Cataloging codes = rules for creating catalog records (AACR2, RDA) Structure = rules that help determine the order of elements & punctuation/spacing in a record (ISBD, XML) Format = format in which a record is created and/or encoded (MARC, Dublin Core) Subject heading = terms from a topical controlled vocabulary that describe the content of a work (LCSH, Sears, AAT) Authority control = term from a controlled vocabulary chosen to uniquely identify an author, corporation, book title, or series (so that all records for one author can be accessed easily) Classification scheme = assigns a unique descriptor to a work (usually based on subject), often used to indicate a work’s physical location (LC, Dewey)
- #5 Find (a specific work, works by a certain author, or on a certain topic) Identify (find a specific edition of a work) Select (evaluate work to determine if it meets the user need) Obtain/Access (find the object on the shelf) List (inventory all objects in the library)
- #6 Group 1: products of intellectual/artistic endeavor: Work: a distinct intellectual or artistic creation Expression: the realization of a work Manifestation: the physical embodiment of an expression of a work Item: a specific, single copy of a manifestation
- #7 Group 1: products of intellectual/artistic endeavor. Work: One work: Jane Austen’s Emma A distinct, new work (derivative work): Emma, the 1997 movie adaptation starring Gwyneth Paltrow Expression: (of Jane Austen’s Emma) The book’s first edition, printed in 1815 A reprinted edition from 1972 with an introduction by Ronald Blythe A 2007 audiobook read by Belinda Lang Manifestation: The 2007 audiobook as a mp3 file The 2007 audiobook as a CD Item: a specific copy of the 2007 audiobook CD of Emma at the 58th Street NYPL branch, call number: CD FIC A a specific copy of the 2007 CD audiobook that I own
- #10 Group 2: persons (or corporate bodies) responsible for the intellectual/artistic content, physical production and dissemination, or custodianship of a work. Examples: Harper Collins, the publisher of a work Jane Austen, the author of a work
- #11 Left: Group 2 entities (persons, corporate bodies) Middle: relationships between entities Right: Group 1 entities
- #12 Group 3: subjects of an intellectual/artistic endeavor—may be a concept, object, event, place, and/or any Group 1 or Group 2 entity, Examples: The French Revolution: the event that is the subject of the musical Les Miz Jane Austen: an author of books (Group 2) who is also the subject of the movie Becoming Jane
- #15 Rule of Three from AACR2: 21.6C2 If responsibility is shared among more than three persons or corporate bodies and principal responsibility is not attributed to any one, two, or three, enter under title. Make an added entry under the heading for the first person or corporate body named. Attempt for most changes from AACR2 to RDA to be implemented on existing records with batch modifications Some require manual updates AACR2 was organized according to format; RDA organized according to entities (FRBR’s 3 groups) Move away from GMD (general material designation): instead, catalog format separately from content Provides more flexibility than AACR2, better able to create records for new formats RDA better handles Group 2 entities (responsible persons/corporate bodies) Can better account for creators/contributors other than traditional “authors” AACR2/MARC old statement of responsibility in 245 tag not explicit about what that “responsibility” was—RDA makes this explicit Move away from “Rule of Three”
- #16 Note that not only does this make more authors searchable for this book, it also explicitly states what their responsibility is
