RDA fields 336, 337, 338
Hi All, Regarding the RDA fields 336, 337, 338 are these in development somewhere? Will these be fields that can be completed with authorized values that can be developed locally or things with plugins? __________________________ Cecil Hillyard Cataloger Washoe County Library Technical Services P.O.

Hi Cecil These could be added to the default framework and plugins developed. But since the Library of Congress has backed right off RDA + MARC and has said that that is not the way forward. We lost urgency on adding this. I think in terms of RDA the work Magnus is doing with SemantiKoha and RDF is going to be much more use in the long run. Chris
The working Group of spanish Koha-Kobli community (http://kobli.bage.es) is finishing to bring up to date the default framework to the last update of MARC21, the 14 (April 2012), we will send it to Koha community shortly. We believe that it is not at all incompatible to update the default framework with to add functionalities related semantic web and RDA. Anyway we need to be able to collect certain information in the fields and subfields of MARC framework to add these new features _________ Domingo Arroyo Fernández Koha-Kobli http://kobli.bage.es Subdirección General de Coordinación Bibliotecaria.

RDA and FRBR are close in spirit to what Koha originally was, and the sort of thing I'd like to see it become again in future. Cheers, Brooke

RDA is fine, MARC is broken, the steering committee acknowledge it is not fit for purpose and RDA + MARC = mess. RDA done properly would be good, RDA done the way the 26 testers have tried and rejected, no not so much Chris
What happens if I start getting records with these fields in them from our bibliographic provider (because I can). They are just there right as long as they are in the frameworks? And can be hidden from the OPAC. If they need to be edited what then? Authorized values or just regular text editing? __________________________ Cecil Hillyard Washoe County Library -Tel: 775-327-8338 or 7750-327-8330 fax: 775-327-8334 -----Original Message----- From: koha-bounces@lists.katipo.co.nz [mailto:koha-bounces@lists.katipo.co.nz] On Behalf Of BWS Johnson Sent: Friday, May 11, 2012 2:09 PM To: koha@lists.katipo.co.nz Subject: Re: [Koha] RDA fields 336, 337, 338 Salvete!

Exactly, you can add them to the frameworks and make them hidden or not. And you could like them to authorised values as well if you wanted. With no code changes needed. What won't happen, is they wont show up in the catalogue results of detail pages, without either editing the XSLT or the templates themselves. Adding them to the XSLT might be a perfect first patch to Koha for you Cecil Chris
