[Heb-NACO] Fwd: RDA Toolkit appendix B.10 (Hebrew and Yiddish abbreviations)

[Gottschalk, Haim]

We transcribe the abbreviations as they appear in the resource.

Dear all,

See below. What do you think about Ahava's question? My impression is that we are not replacing terms on a resource by abbreviations under RDA (certainly not at Maryland).

Thanks,


Neil

Shalom,

As the RDA Steering Committee finishes up work on 3R, they've been discussing the appendices in the current Toolkit. I've asked, and been granted permission, to have the largest Hebraica cataloging policy bodies (AJL, LC, and NLI) make a recommendation about the fate of the Hebrew and Yiddish abbreviation appendix.

The Latin script abbreviations are all for recorded elements. So the question about our appendix is:
Are the abbreviations specified used in recorded elements or do they belong to transcribed elements?

If we're talking recorded elements – things that you consistently change from what's on the resource (as we used to change edition statements to ed. or מהד'), the appendix needs to stay. If all the terms are found in transcribed elements, those we copy from the resource, then the list more properly belongs as a resource in the AJL documentation than as a mandate in the Toolkit. In Israel we don't use any of these terms in recorded elements.

Here's the list:

Do you know of cataloging agencies which would replace the term used on a resource with the abbreviation when creating a record?

Kol tuv,
