Definition:

 The uniform title identifies an item if it has appeared under varying titles. It brings together records for items entered under both personal and corporate names and bearing variant titles. Use for uniform titles that follow the main entry ( field 100, field 110 or field 111). Use field 130 for uniform titles that are the main entry.

For current cataloging, construct uniform titles according to AACR2 and LC practice. Search the OCLC Authority File to verify forms of entry. Use the current AACR2 or AACR2-compatible form of entry. If that form is unknown, construct the heading according to AACR2.

For retrospective cataloging, search the OCLC Authority File to verify forms of entry. Use the current AACR2 or AACR2-compatible form of entry. If that form is unknown, you may enter the pre-AACR2 form, but you are encouraged to construct the heading according to AACR2.

RDA -- INTRODUCTION BACKGROUND AND HISTORY

-
Resource Description and Access ( RDA ) is a standard for cataloguing that provides instructions and guidelines on formulating data for resource description and discovery. Intended for use by libraries and other cultural organizations such as museums and archives, RDA is the successor to the Anglo-American Cataloguing Rules, Second Edition (AACR2), the current cataloging standard set for English language libraries. RDA was initially released in June 2010. In March 2012, the Library of Congress announced it will have fully implemented RDA cataloging by March 31, 2013. Several other national libraries including the British Library, Library and Archives Canada, National Library of Australia, and Deutsche Nationalbibliothek also planned to implement RDA in 2013.
