Dear Colleagues,

At the most recent ALCTS CaMMS/MAGIRT Cartographic Resources Cataloging
Interest Group at ALA Annual we discussed creating a dedicated forum for
discussing the cataloging of cartographic materials using RDA.

The new MAGIRT RDA ([log in to unmask] <mailto:[log in to unmask]>)
listserv is devoted solely to the cataloging of cartographic materials
using RDA and related topics.

The list is intended to provide an ongoing and open forum for the
cartographic resources community to discuss topics, exchange ideas, pose
questions, and receive answers about using RDA to catalog all types of
cartographic materials.  In addition to providing an informal and
welcoming environment for discussion, we hope that the list will help to
inform the development of a set of MAGIRT RDA cataloging “best
practices” for the cartographic resources community.

Anyone is welcome to subscribe to the list (you do not need to be an ALA
or MAGIRT member to join).
