Hello!

I am Stephanie Hoyet from the Courtauld Institute Library in London.

We implemented RDA in April last year. We got trained at the beginning of 2013. It was very puzzling and daunting to start with, but now I feel fine about it. I must say it is a very exiting experience, challenging and rewarding to learn new things and a new way to catalogue.

We are downloading RDA records if possible, otherwise AACR2 ones that we change to RDA. I find it much quicker than creating a record from scratch.

Look forward to hearing other experiences.

Regards

Stephanie
