Dear Reader,

Unless you are a slug, a sea anemone, or mildew, you probably prefer not to be damp. You might also prefer not to read this book, in which the Baudelaire siblings uncover an unpleasant amount of dampness as they descend into the depths of despair, underwater.

With all due respect,

Lemony Snicket

RDA COMPLIANT?

• Which of the following 264s are RDA compliant?• 264 _1 ‡a [Minneapolis : ‡b Poor Peoples Press, ‡c

1985?]• NOT. Uses AACR2 punctuation. Correct form in RDA

is: • 264 _1 ‡a [Minneapolis] : ‡b [Poor Peoples Press], ‡c

[1985?] • 264 _1 ‡a New Haven [Conn.] : ‡b Elm St. Co., ‡c 2014.• NOT. AACR2 requires the cataloger to look up the

appropriate abbreviation for the state. RDA practice is to spell out the larger jurisdiction while leaving any abbreviations on the item as found:

• 264 _1 ‡a New Haven [Connecticut] : ‡b Elm St. Company, ‡c 2014.

2/26/2013 27

Or: Elm St. Co. -- depends on what appears in the book

identified], ‡c [2015]264 _2 ‡a [Northfield, Minnesota] : ‡b Fell Off the Truck Distributing Service, ‡c 2015.• RDA compliant! • If you can't identify an element of the publication

statement, you must record the distributor name (if no distributor name, then record the printing statement). In this case, if you cannot identify the publisher, then make a second 264 (note the indicator) for the distributor

ABBREVIATED?

• Which of the following should be abbreviated, spelled out, or corrected to, in an RDA 250, 264 or 300 field?• minutes• Abbreviated to min.

audio disc is accompanying material

inferred place of publication, or, as a last resort: [place of publication not identified]

WHICH OF THESE USE A PERIOD AT THE END OF THE FIELD?

• 245 __ … / ‡c by Jenna Jones [and 20 others]• YES, 245 must always end with a period even if it results in

double punctuation. With RDA dropping [et al.], ending 245 with a bracket is less of an issue unless the optional [and x others] catches on

• 250 __ ‡a Third, revised ed.• NO-- the period for the abbreviation is all you need

• 250 __ ‡a 3rd revised edition• YES, if 250 does not end with an abbreviation, a period is

required

• 300 … cm if there is no series • NO

2/26/2013 34

IS IT AN ERROR

• Is the 245 for Macroeconomics in error or is it cataloger judgment?• It's an error; consult with your supervisor. Added

entries for authors are not mandatory, however. • The illustrator and the author of the introduction are

not recorded in 245 $c . Is this an error or a cataloger decision?• It's a cataloger decision; only the first statement

of responsibility is core. Considering that it's a graphic novel, leaving out the illustration is not a very good decision. An added entry for the illustrator or even the author of the introduction would still be OK

2/26/2013 35

BRACKETING

• Which of the following require brackets?• Statement of responsibility taken from the cover• NO

• Statement of responsibility taken from the verso of the title page?• NO

• Statement of responsibility taken from the book jacket?• YES, add brackets if the transcription source is external

• Statement of responsibility taken from accompanying material?• YES, accompanying material is "external"

• Unnumbered leaves in 300• NO-- use "unnumbered leaves"

2/26/2013 36
