                  <p>RDA colleagues,</p>
                  <p>See the announcement below, also posted on the JSC
                    website.&nbsp; Feel free to share this information with
                    your colleagues.</p>
                  <p>Regards, Judy Kuhagen</p>

                  <p>The Joint Steering Committee for Development of RDA
                    (JSC), Metadata Management Associates, and ALA
                    Publishing (on behalf of the co-publishers of RDA)
                    are pleased to announce that the RDA elements and
                    relationship designators have been published in the
                    Open Metadata Registry (OMR) as Resource Description
                    Framework (RDF) element sets suitable for linked
                    data and semantic Web applications.</p>
                  <p>The elements include versions "unconstrained" by
                    Functional Requirements for Bibliographic Records
                    (FRBR) and Functional Requirements for Authority
                    Data (FRAD), the standard library models
                    underpinning RDA, that are intended for use in
                    applications by non-RDA communities.</p>
                  <p>The published version of the RDA element sets
                    builds on several years of work by the DCMI/RDA Task
                    Group. Earlier versions developed by the Group will
                    remain available, but will be deprecated for further
                    development and use, and redirected to the new
                    version.</p>
                  <p>Gordon Dunsire, Chair of the JSC, said "The RDA
                    element set is a distillation of modern approaches
                    to resource discovery supporting rich descriptions
                    of library and cultural heritage materials and
                    detailed relationships between them at international
                    level. The JSC has recently established a working
                    group to assist in extending and refining the RDA
                    elements, and hopes that they will be useful to
                    other communities, ranging from close neighbours in
                    library linked data to the global networks of
                    general search."</p>
                  <p>Diane Hillmann of Metadata Management Associates
                    said "We are extremely pleased to be able to make
                    this new version available now in fully published
                    form, ready for implementation by libraries and
                    vendors. We look forward to discussing the important
                    features available in this version with our
                    colleagues at the upcoming ALA Midwinter meetings
                    and beyond."</p>
                  <p>James Hennelly, Managing Editor of RDA Toolkit,
                    said "This is an important update to the RDA
                    Registry and a crucial step in the advancement of
                    RDA's mission to be a standard that is accessible to
                    both cataloging professionals, through the toolkit
                    and print and ebook publications, and to application
                    developers seeking to make use of library data,
                    through the Registry's expression of the RDA
                    elements and vocabularies."</p>
