In 2012 ALA Publishing, on behalf of the RDA Co-Publishers, and National Library of China Publishing House announced an agreement for the translation of RDA: Resource Description and Access into the Chinese language. The National Library of China Publishing House will translate and publish a print version of RDA in Chinese and distribute it in China and globally. The translation effort by the National Library of China Publishing House is primarily focused on providing RDA in print to a wider audience for further research of the new standard and evaluating its viability for use in Chinese libraries. The current agreement does not include any plans to offer an online version of the translation.

UPDATE: The National Library of China Publishing House's translation of RDA is now complete and available at http://book.douban.com/subject/25890307/. posted 2014.05.22
