Will schools have to take out their own subscriptions to the RDA Toolkit or will we be able to access the information via our SCIS subscription?

I would like to support Angela’s concern, would it be possible to run some SCIS courses in Sydney, particularly to further understand RDA? I am happy to help organise/offer a venue if that is appropriate. Margo Pickworth, Ph. 99561187

Thank you for taking an interest in the blog and for raising issues about cataloguing standards. We agree that consistency in cataloguing is very important and are keen to fix anything that users identify
In terms of punctuation this is an ongoing challenge which can be affected by changing standards as well as differences between how Library Systems display data.
To troubleshoot specific examples could you send details with SCIS number to scisinfo@esa.edu.au for our cataloguing team or phone us +61 3 9207 9600 to discuss further.

Many thanks

Hello
This is probably taking adv of this forum for a comment abt current standards.
We have been getting an awful lot of variation in cataloguing – even across the same titles. Mostly it is in extra punctuation but sometimes it is significant in that the main title of an item was not included anywhere in the description.
These are just a couple of the concerns we have had lately which make it very difficult for us to maintain consistency in records & more importantly, make it very difficult to queue the same/similar resources together by title.

Thanks Sue

This looks amazing! It would be great to get this training in Sydney, too.
