RDA implementation in the URBE Network
Abstract
URBE -Unione Romana Biblioteche Ecclesiastiche- is composed of 18 academic libraries and adopted RDA starting from March 2017. The process of the decision, the formation and training of cataloguers, and the modifications made to 4 different ILSs, as well as the goals URBE hopes to achieve thanks to RDA adoption, are presented. Also, the adoption of the RDA Toolkit, and the problems related to local variants, currently examined in collaboration with the Vatican Library, are discussed.
