Backstage - Announcing Retrospective RDA Enrichment for All
Greetings Everyone, Thanks to all who participated in our recent survey on RDA implementation. Among the results, 58% of respondents showed at least some interest in an automated enrichment process for RDA. And more than half of you noted that consistency in your catalog is an important reason to move forward with this enrichment, when the time is right. Many of our new customers, processing their authorities with Backstage for the first time, are choosing to enrich their bibliographic records with RDA elements as part of that process. We also appreciate the loyalty and feedback of our existing customers. RDA enrichment is already available for new records as part of your Current Cataloging authority control. Now, we're pleased to announce free retrospective RDA enrichment of your catalog for all Backstage authority control customers. To qualify for this service, the following conditions are in place: * Clients must have already completed a Remaster or Basefile processing with Backstage * Clients must be current, meaning Notification services were applied during the preceding year * Clients need to alert us of their interest in this service by June 30, 2014; and processing must be completed by December 31, 2014 We would also like to work with you on future press releases, quotes, and co-presentation opportunities related to this service for your catalog, as individual institutional policies permit. Our online profile can be viewed at anytime, by logging in here: http://ac.bslw.com/mars The RDA enrichment profile is separate from our normal authority control profile. We have also separated access points from descriptive changes within the profile, all of which can be customized to your liking. Our hope with this offering is that it helps simplify decisions on your side regarding whether to apply RDA enrichment for your records. We appreciate your patronage and for continuing to choose Backstage as your Authority Control service provider. Please let us know any questions you may have.

We have had a few inquiries from customers regarding this qualification: * Clients must have already completed a Remaster or Basefile processing with Backstage Any client that came over from OCLC to Backstage when Backstage acquired the service back in late 2004 automatically meets the criteria for the first qualification above. Thank you for your questions and please feel free to ask us more. -Nate From: bslwac-bounces@mailman.xmission.com [mailto:bslwac-bounces@mailman.xmission.com] On Behalf Of Nate Cothran Sent: Wednesday, January 15, 2014 3:45 PM To: Backstage Library Works Authority Contol Listserv Subject: [BSLWAC] Backstage - Announcing Retrospective RDA Enrichment for All Greetings Everyone, Thanks to all who participated in our recent survey on RDA implementation.

Hi Cheryl, Thank you for your interest in this free RDA enrichment service. As you are a client that came over with Backstage once we acquired the Authority Control service from OCLC back in late 2004 and you have done Notification services with us in the past year, Hutchinson Community Colleges qualifies for this free service. I will send another email off-list with more details.
