The IFLA Audiovisual and Multimedia Section (AVMS) is sponsoring a two-part webinar (part 1: 22 March; part 2: 23 March) will cover how to apply rules in the original RDA Toolkit and OLAC (Online Audiovisual Catalogers) best practices to catalog DVDs and Blu-rays, as well as streaming videos.

Topics will include selecting preferred sources of information, recording descriptive elements and authorized and variant access points, specialized MARC tags, and genre/form headings.  Resources will also be shared with attendees to inform them about where to go for more information.

Each of the two parts will be 90 minutes.

Note: Use a time zone converter to see what time the webinar takes place in your region.
