 The Continuing Resources Cataloging Committee (CRCC) is pleased to present our agenda for our popular Update Forum.

 Our Agenda:

Adolfo Tarango, CJK, Serials, and Shared Cataloging Division Head, Metadata Services Department, University of California, San Diego – CRS Rep to CC:DA report

 Regina Reynolds, Director, U.S. ISSN Center – in addition to her ISSN report, Regina will also talk about the recently released PIE-J report available at: http://bit.ly/KR3SKL

 Les Hawkins, CONSER Program Coordinator—in addition to his LC/CONSER report, Les will also give a report on CONSER RDA documentation and training plans.

CONSER has developed three RDA serials cataloging tools to document CONSER core RDA elements and provide advice on coding and cataloging decision making. The tools have been made available as resources on CONSER website and in the RDA toolkit. CONSER has developed an RDA training plan based on the core RDA curriculum developed by LC and the CONSER core RDA elements.

 Ed Jones, Bibliographic and Metadata Services Coordinator , National University, will discuss his forthcoming book, RDA and Serials Cataloging http://bit.ly/Ki8AQ8 and the challenges he faced while writing it.
