Dear colleagues,
I’m helping to organize an RDA workshop focused on art research materials hosted at the METRO (Metropolitan New York Library Council) office in Manhattan. This event is tentatively scheduled for early December 2013. We are looking for a virtual raise of hands to gauge interest in the event to assist in our planning of this one-day workshop (see description below). If you are interested in attending this training or having this session recorded, please let me know by visiting:

Description:
This workshop will focus on providing description and access to art research materials – formats will include monographs (auction catalogs, exhibition catalogs, and artists’ books), archival materials (including artist files), and graphic materials. The workshop will include two 3-hour sessions, one on resource description and entity relationships, and an afternoon work session where participants are encouraged to discuss the materials covered in the morning session as well as address specific cataloging decision/workflow issues connected with the implementation of RDA.
The workshop will address only issues specific to art cataloging and will not provide general instruction for using RDA. Topics to be covered include:
- how to determine the access point formerly known as main entry;
- how to describe multiple physical characteristics using the new MARC fields implemented for RDA;
- what are relationship designators and when to use them;
- what's new and different in the authority file -- headings for exhibitions, works of art, personal and corporate names.
Instructors: Penny Baker, Collections Management Librarian at the Sterling and Francine Clark Art Institute Library, and Anne Champagne, Head of Technical Services at the Ryerson & Burnham Libraries, Art Institute of Chicago.
Thank you very much for your feedback.
Best,
Lily
