March 2023 RDA Toolkit Release

A new release of RDA Toolkit was ready on March 24, 2023, but due to some technical issues, its posting was delayed until March 27th. The release was a small one compared to past releases. Minor changes to English language RDA were made for the purpose of clarity and consistency. Revisions to the Guidance: Data Elements provide more explanation about the relationship and application of element supertypes and subtypes.

The Finnish translation was updated to make it current with the English language version in this release. Policy statements from the Library of Congress - Program for Cooperative Cataloging, the British Library, the Music Library Association Best Practices, the National Library of New Zealand, and the Suomalaiset linjaukset were also updated.

Toolkit subscribers can access the full Notes on the March 24, 2023 RDA Toolkit Release in the Revision History section of the Resources tab.
