RDA Book Cataloging
February 7, 2025 10am-1pm
Are you new to RDA guidelines or just need a refresher? Did the holidays push your cataloging knowledge out of your brain? If so, then please join us for RDA Book Cataloging with Bobby Bothmann.
Bobby will cover the RDA guidelines including relationships and work and expression access points.
Bobby Bothmann is a professor at Minnesota State University, Mankato where he serves as the catalog and metadata librarian. Bobby catalogs analog and digital resources of all kinds, including books, serials, moving images, objects, cartographic resources, musical and spoken word audio recordings, and music in between many meetings. He is a member of the editorial board for Cataloging & Classification Quarterly and an active member of OLAC (OnLine Audiovisual Catalogers).
There will be a brief business meeting at 10am before the program.
