We have one full time equivalent cataloguing here at Aber – two of us .5 each – we’ve both been on some training days. We did a trial of the toolkit
for one of the courses and have a few of the workflows available from there but figure we will subscribe when we know more about our LMS plans.
We have given some training out for acquisitions staff and others who use and upgrade records so they know what we’re talking about and can chose
RDA over AACR2 where possible.

Subject: [CIG-E-FORUM] RDA - staff time
Could I ask the possibly sensitive question as to how many staff/much staff time people are devoting to RDA? We're finding it difficult to do alongside out day jobs as it were, and there are just two of us tackling it
at the moment. I'd be interested to hear what's happening elsewhere.
Thanks,
Jackie
