Currently there are the following workflows in the RDA Toolkit:
- Cornell: Cheat Sheet for Content/Media/Carrier Fields in RDA
- Cornell: Cheat Sheet for the New Authorities Fields
- Cornell: Maps workflow
- Cornell: Photocopies
Here are issues that we need clearer agreement on, or at least documentation justifying Cornell's stand:
- 040 subfield b eng
- Use of 490:0 : (I am seeing a surprising number of catalogers still tracing their series. I'm not sure David Banush's memo on non-PCC cataloging ever really took).
- Relationship designators---we're trying to use them, as long as we can choose an appropriate one. Right?
- 245 $a Transcribing author's affiliations. Some are, some are adding to record.
- 500 Should we add notes like "Poems" or "Short stories" like AACR2. Not spelled out in RDA.
- 260 Rules says to add first place mentioned or all. Do we want a ruling or leave it to cataloger's judgment? If the second one is in the US, we might want to include?
- 504 Follow rule or Stanford's model for unnumbered pages.
- 500 for Cover title. Not really spelled out in list of examples in Toolkit.
- 245 $a Use of capitals. Continue familiar practice, or capitalize first letter of each word or whole word if on piece, or leave up to cataloger?
- 040 Order of $e rda in string
- Fixed field -- Use of the Literary Form fixed field. Do we want to have a policy?
- Fixed field -- Audience, not just when the book is juvenile: Adult, Specialized, General. Do we want to have a policy?
- Flowchart for compilations/collaborations?
