As the introduction of RDA marked a major transformation in cataloguing practices after decades of relatively unchanged standards, this book serves as an essential resource for librarians and cataloguers seeking clear guidance on adapting to the new system.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"647\" data-end=\"1093\"\u003eThe book offers a step-by-step explanation of how RDA standards can be mapped onto existing cataloguing rules and practices. It thoroughly discusses FRBR (Functional Requirements for Bibliographic Records) and FRAD (Functional Requirements for Authority Data), which form the conceptual foundation of RDA. The publication also explains how RDA elements can be effectively integrated into MARC21 records used in modern automated library systems.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"1095\" data-end=\"1577\"\u003eAuthors Anne Welsh and Sue Batley provide readers with a detailed introduction to current catalogues, cataloguing standards, publication formats, bibliographic elements, access points, and headings. The book examines the structure, development, and features of RDA while also comparing its similarities and differences with AACR. In addition, it explains MARC21 records in detail, including tags, indicators, fields, and sub-field codes essential for machine-readable cataloguing.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"1579\" data-end=\"1884\"\u003eWritten in a practical and accessible style, this publication serves as a valuable resource for Library and Information Science students, cataloguers, librarians, researchers, and information professionals involved in cataloguing, metadata management, and technical processing in modern library systems.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Ess Ess Publication","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":66865517166896,"sku":"DRG.EssEssPub_9788170006886","price":829.0,"currency_code":"INR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0690\/9968\/4144\/files\/612.jpg?v=1779700674","url":"https:\/\/www.retailmaharaj.com\/products\/practical-cataloguing-aacr2-rda-and-marc21","provider":"Retail Maharaj","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
