RDA in MARC

June 1, 2011: “Library of Congress May Begin Transitioning Away from MARC” This is an interesting article expanding upon the LC announcement re “Transforming our Bibliographic Framework”. It is sounding more and more like the LC decision re RDA implementation will be “Yes, we will implement, but not in MARC”. But if that is the case, the next big question is “When will we have a replacement for MARC, so that we can implement RDA?” http://tslltechscans.blogspot.com/2011/05/library-of-congress-may-begin.html

May 13, 2011: “Transforming our Bibliographic Framework: A Statement from the Library of Congress” Very interesting announcement that seems to be pointing towards implementation of RDA in something other than MARC.
