Hello,

We still have some spaces available for this workshop on RDA - registration
closes on the 17th November, so please don't forget to register!

The* Cataloguing & Indexing Group in Scotland*, in conjunction with the* UK
Committee on RDA (UKCoR)* is delighted to present an* RDA Orientation
Workshop* in Edinburgh.

This all day event will follow a part seminar, part practical workshop
format. Presentations from* Alan Danskin* from the* British Library* and*
Gordon Dunsire* from the* RDA Steering Committee*, will prepare delegates
for the practical hands-on sessions.

The practical element will involve delegates using* RIMMF (*RDA in Many
Metadata Formats) to explore different scenarios using elements and
concepts from the* RDA beta Toolkit*. The aim of the day is to put the RDA
theory into practice in a non-MARC environment, and to introduce delegates
to the implications of Toolkit restructure and redesign (*3R*) and* LRM*.

Due to the practical nature of this workshop, delegates are asked to bring
their own laptops with RIMMF version 4 installed. Further information for
delegates will  be provided following registration, and RDA experts will be
available to support delegates in the practical sessions.

Places for delegates are limited to 40, so early booking is recommended.

The event is to be held in the Edinburgh Centre for Carbon Innovation,
which is easily accessible from Waverley Station. Directions can be found
here:

A buffet lunch and refreshments will be provided.
