Hi I'd like to say thanks very much for this - most welcome. I've had a look at it and I think we'll find it really useful here when we finally grasp the RDA nettle. Thanks for making it available.
Regards,

Subject: Cambridge University RDA materials
The Cambridge RDA Steering Group is pleased to announce that it is making available all of its RDA documentation and training materials under a Creative Commons CC-BY licence for anyone to reuse or adapt.
http://cambridgerda.wordpress.com/
This material was based on training given by the British Library, which in turn was based on training developed by the Cooperative & Instructional Programs Division at the Library of Congress. We express our grateful thanks to these institutions for making their training materials available for us to adapt and we are publishing our versions in the same spirit of cooperation and sharing.
The training materials were developed for an internal audience and so obviously reflect Cambridge practice and policy. They deal primarily with print monographs, with some coverage of serials and integrating resources.
Training and policy for other formats (music, maps, audiovisual material, electronic resources, etc.) are currently under development and will be added to the site as they become available. It must be noted that the recordings of training modules are far from being of professional quality, however we hope they may still be of use to colleagues in other institutions.
We hope some of you find this site helpful in your own preparations for RDA.
