Abstract

From July through December 2010, three U.S. national libraries, the Library of Congress, the National Agricultural Library, and the National Library of Medicine, coordinated a test of Resource Description and Access (RDA) that included 23 other test participants representing a broad range of institutions. The goal of the RDA test was to assure the operational, technical, and economic feasibility of the new cataloging code in order to help determine whether the national libraries would decide to implement the new code. The design and methodology of the test, how the data were analyzed, and specific impact of RDA on the serials community were presented.
