| Synopsis: |
This essential new textbook provides cataloguers with the skills needed for transition to Resource Description and Access (RDA).

There is also a fully explained worked example based on RDA Appendix M.Readership: Written at a time of transition in international cataloguing, this book provides cataloguers and students with a background in general cataloguing principles, the current code (AACR2) and format (MARC 21) and the new standard (RDA). The contextual chapters provide library managers with an up-to-date overview of the development of RDA in order to equip them to make the transition. The book will be essential reading for students of library and information studies and practising library and information professionals in all sectors.
