    Promoting Discovery Tools for Libraries: Use of RDA in Libraries in the Asia and Oceania Region in 2023-2024
    (International Federation of Library Associations and Institutions (IFLA), 2025-06-04) Ling, NG Hui; Jailani, Haliza
    This presentation explores the current landscape of RDA (Resource Description and Access) implementation across Asia, based on the results of two regional surveys conducted between 2023 and 2024. It highlights key findings, including adoption rates, challenges faced by libraries, and the varied cataloguing practices shaped by national standards and resource constraints. The session also shares Singapore’s journey in implementing RDA, outlining practical strategies, training frameworks, and lessons learned by the National Library Board. Drawing on both regional data and local experience, the presentation concludes with targeted recommendations to support wider adoption, including calls for increased collaboration, shared resources, and localized training initiatives across Asia’s diverse library communities.
