New Target Date for 3R Project

Significant advancements have been made toward the completion of the 3R project (also known as the RDA Toolkit Restructure and Redesign Project), and unexpected obstacles have arisen. Both the progress made and the obstacles encountered have made clear that the original goal of an April rollout of the redesigned Toolkit is no longer feasible. A new target date of June 13th has been set. The goals for the June rollout are to have the completed new RDA text in English and at least one other language and 2 or 3 updated policy statements. A subsequent release in an August or September will include the remaining translations and policy statements and further development of the new Toolkit functionality. For more information on the 3R project schedule and the current status of the project see the 3R Project Status Report #3.
