Abstract

The CARLI consortium has begun to take advantage of RDA records in our shared Voyager catalog to identify specific media in our libraries' collections, and to expose these as faceting options in our VuFind union catalog. We have also adjusted our criteria for identifying "formats" in AACR2 and pre-AACR2 records, to distinguish DVD from VHS, vinyl LP from audiocassette, etc. We'll share information about our dilemmas, mistakes and successes.
