Hi Lori and others interested in cataloguing, Thanks Lori for raising this topic. Can we schedule a time to be in #Koha so that we can discuss the way forward re RDA for Koha? A good time for me would be Sydney 20/1 @ 7.55am Would this time suit others? http://www.timeanddate.com/worldclock/fixedtime.html?msg=Koha+and+RDA&iso=20120120T0755&p1=240&ah=1 http://koha-community.org/get-involved/irc/ With best regards, Irma ------------------ Irma Birchall Founding CEO CALYX information essentials Koha & Kete implementations and services T: +61 (2) 80061603 ~ M: +61 (0) 413 510 717 irma@calyx.net.au ~ www.calyx.net.au DM on twitter irmalibraries Participating in the Open Source projects: http://koha-community.org & http://kete.net.nz **

Hi All,
I've recently been in touch with James Hennelly ( future--jhennelly@ala.org) who is involved in the RDA Toolkit. He drew my attention to their free MARC linking service ( http://www.rdatoolkit.org/sites/default/files/marc_api_linkguide_final.pdf) that allows for ILS users to open RDA Toolkit from a MARC input screen. The service is already being used by OCLC's Connection and SkyRiver. They'd love to see this service implemented with an open source product so would like to talk to someone about it.
Would anyone be interested in pursuing this for Koha?
