Media Reviews
[T]he book is a great resource and collects a lot of cataloging information that is otherwise dispersed. It would be a valuable resource to a new cataloger or any cataloger needing help interpreting RDA. It is a text for catalogers in any type of library and for any type of material (including non-traditional materials). It should be found in every library school library as a reference resource. * Technical Services Quarterly *
