Teaching and Training

Training and Classroom Access

To allow for training of future and current catalogers and other metadata professionals who need to become familiar with RDA, we are offering access to the RDA Toolkit. The institution must purchase a subscription that matches its ongoing cataloging needs and then inform RDA Toolkit staff via the RDA Toolkit Support Center of the number of additional users needed for any given training or class period. RDA Toolkit access will be granted for that period to the additional users at no additional charge. If an institution does not yet subscribe, but wants access for LIS or other training, the site subscription base price of $325 USD (or the equivalent if purchased in another currency) will apply.

Training Calendar

We maintain a calendar of RDA and RDA Toolkit training opportunities offered by ALA Publishing as well as by other groups both within and outside ALA. These training events are submitted by the sponsoring group itself. Add your training event to the calendar at any time.
