Representação descritiva de obras de arte à luz do RDA

Abstract

Aiming to identifying the advances brought by RDA in the descriptive representation of works of art, the research has the general objective of analyze the new code, and making a comparison with the Anglo-American Cataloging Code, in the description of works of art. The research had the specific objective of explain the conceptual models of Functional Requirements for Bibliographic Records (FRBR) and Functional Requirements for Authority Data (FRAD), their functioning, concepts, and characterize and explain RDA, with the identification of its structure. The methodology consisted of bibliographic surveys, content analysis, documentation and comparative analysis, using the AACR2, International Cataloguing Principles, FRBR, FRAD, and RDA, for consultation when carrying out the analysis. The analysis focused on identifying the new rules established by RDA, based on conceptual models, analyzing the differences between the codes, including terminologies used and rule changes. In addition to observing the alignment of the RDA, with MARC21. It is concluded that the new code brings necessary advances to cataloging, opening new dialogues compared to the current use of AACR2, and emphasizing the use of the MARC21 metadata standard in different contexts, RDA itself has significant potential in various fields of application. The research highlighted not only the advantages brought by RDA in the cataloging works of art, but also the challenges that must be overcome for its effective adoption.
