The presentation will include a short review of some the changes in the new version of RDA - both pros and cons. Also the presentation will argue that a successful adoption of RDA requires international perspective on the code as well as international cooperation in order to get a mutual understanding of the content, improve the content and make further development of the content in the direction of a truly international code - accepted, used and understood in many diverse libraries. The presentation will refer to EURIG - European RDA Interest Group - as an example of international cooperation.}, language = {en} }
