American Libraries Live has scheduled the free webinar Introducing RDA. Here's the original announcement with more details.

As more libraries around the world adopt RDA (Resource Description and Access), knowledge of this new standard is a crucial skill. RDA has tremendous potential for helping the library world move into the digital world. On the flip side, it is a major anxiety point for catalogers who aren’t sure what they need to learn to get started with this new standard. In this episode, our expert panel will discuss how RDA is different from MARC, how librarians can get started with RDA, and they will also share their own experiences.

You can pre-register for this free 60-minute event, or go to www.americanlibrarieslive.org at the start time of the event.
