The RDA Steering Committee (RSC) has released their usual February update to the RDA rules. Many of the changes this time around are related to the decision made in November 2016 to adopt the new IFLA Library Reference Model (LRM) as a conceptual model. This replaces the Functional Requirements suite of standards (FRBR, FRAD, FRSAD, etc.) that are now superseded by the LRM. Though most of the changes required to adapt to this new standard will take effect in the April 2018 release of RDA, it is clear that the RSC is laying the groundwork now.
On October 18, the RDA Steering Committee (RSC) released the latest update to the text of RDA and the RDA Toolkit. As usual, the update reflects some Fast Track changes and updates to the various language translations of RDA. Highlights are included in the full article, along with information about a new project called the 3R Project: the RDA Toolkit Restructure and Redesign Project.
On February 8, the RDA Steering Committee (previously known as the Joint Steering Committee) released the latest round of Fast Track changes and updates to RDA.
