Please consider volunteering for this committee. Rare materials perspectives would be useful. (I’m a member, but I’m not always wearing my rare book hat while participating 😊)

Subject: Call for volunteers: PCC RDA Communications Committee


The Program for Cooperative Cataloging<https://www.loc.gov/aba/pcc/> (PCC) RDA Communications Committee<https://www.loc.gov/aba/pcc/rda/communications-committee/> is actively recruiting new members. Experience with RDA development and/or training is valuable but not required. This would be a great opportunity for those newer to the profession or to the PCC. Applicants should be affiliated with an active PCC institution/funnel. The membership term will be for approximately two years (August 2023-July 2025), with the option to renew. Please see the committee web page<https://www.loc.gov/aba/pcc/rda/communications-committee/> for our current charge and a list of current members.



  *   The committee currently meets via Zoom approximately once per month.
  *   Membership is likely to require a commitment of 6 hours or less on average per month.
  *   The committee currently utilizes a rotation schedule for monitoring new submissions from our RDA feedback form<https://docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1FAIpQLSdSXHgduC1TnjXS7ERb0ggGyaIr3Z5xVeqUWyQ2fzEHioQR_w/viewform>. Members are responsible for monitoring the form for a one-week period every five weeks.
  *   We are committed to maintaining/striving for diversity within the committee.


If you are interested in serving on the PCC RDA Communications Committee, please send an email to Adam Baron (co-chair) at adam.baron at berkeley.edu<mailto:adam.baron at berkeley.edu> and Casey Mullin (co-chair) at mullinc3 at wwu.edu<mailto:mullinc3 at wwu.edu> by July 7, 2023. In your message, please let us know why you would like to serve on the PCC RDA Communications Committee and describe your relevant experience with, interest in and/or enthusiasm for RDA development. Also, since we may have many volunteers for only a few spots, please rest assured that if you express interest but are not appointed, we will keep track of your interest and may tap you for future opportunities. The PCC RDA Communications Committee will determine selection and notify candidates in July/August 2023.


We are looking forward to hearing from you soon!

Best regards,
Adam
Co-chair, PCC RDA Communications Committee
