Chris,

My colleague, John Attig, has been working with a JSC group to pull
together a website of "what it would look like" RDA examples in
recent months, and "contracted" with Mary Larsgaard, myself, and
Susan Moore to do a couple for maps. Right at this moment I do not
know if the website is available to the public, if I see John today I
will ask him the status and share on here. There are only two example
records created, one for a monographic single-sheet map and the other
for a series or set. And remember, RDA hasn't even begun testing yet,
so nobody (pass this on to your administrators) should expect to see
much in the way of "real" records for formats for awhile yet!
