昨天收到了RDA Toolkit的邮件，通知我RDA终于开始提供公共访问的试用了。
The RDA Toolkit open-access period is now open! This email contains information about how you can access the RDA Toolkit between now and August 31, 2010.
RDA Toolkit Direct Access URL: http://access.rdatoolkit.org
You are registered for solo-user access: You’ll use the user name and password above to access both the RDA Toolkit and your User Profile.
As you use the RDA Toolkit, you’ll notice ongoing improvements and additions. We look forward to your feedback. RDA Toolkit highlights to try:
- RDA instructions that are searchable and browseable
- AACR2 Rule Number Search of RDA instructions
- Workflows, mappings: tools to customize the RDA instruction set to support organizational training and processes.
- Two views of RDA content-by table of contents and by element set
- Full text of AACR2
Bookmark the informational website www.rdatoolkit.org where you can access webinar archives, an RDA training calendar, presenter/trainer materials, pricing in the major currencies, and more.
If you need to process a subscription before the electronic order form and payment gateway go live in the next few weeks, please contact us via the RDA Toolkit Support Center atwww.rdatoolkit.org/support so we can process your order. You will not pay for any part of your subscription that falls within the open-access period; we will extend all subscriptions through at least August 31, 2011.
And if you’re attending ALA Annual Conference in Washington, D.C., visit us in the exhibits at booth #2605 for a demo, to chat with ALA Digital Reference Publisher Troy Linker and other staff, and to review an early sample of the print RDA Instructions.
还没来得及登陆去看。不过扫了一眼，似乎现在还可以继续注册试用的。
