RDA to FRBR mapping

Filed under: RDA — William Denton @ 7:03 am

Pardon me while I catch up on some of the things that happened over the last couple of weeks. You know how it is.

On 18 June 2007, Nathalie Schulz, secretary of the Joint Steering Committee for Development of RDA, sent out e-mail to the RDA mailing list about a revised draft of chapters 6 and 7 and a revised scope document. She said, “For information, the RDA Scope and structure document has been revised and now has two accompanying documents, an RDA element analysis and an RDA to FRBR mapping.”

If you’re following FRBR and FRAD in RDA, you’ll want to read all of this. Comments?

Discussion of all of this will appear in the RDA mailing list June 2007 archive file sometime in July, if you who aren’t on the list want to read it.
