Inputting

Take what you see:

•Fewer abbreviations

•More transcription

•No more “Rule of Three”; no [et al.]; no Latin

•4 new fields: 264, 336, 337, 338

•Templates and macros are your friends

•Accuracy of data is more important than punctuation

•Copy stays AACR2 if it comes to us in AACR2; copy stays RDA if it comes to us in RDA.

•Don’t stress – a cataloger will be working on the record.  We’re all part of the same team with the same goal
