Over the last nine or ten months a small, dedicated team has led an extensive community consultation activity to plan the Future Directions of RDA. This resulted in a short document describing 15 major actions in areas of Communications, Engagement, and Coordination. The document defines roles for the membership and RDA’s various governing bodies in implementing these actions. The RDA Council has the responsibility for the future direction of RDA, and they just approved the final document. The final document and background materials are available at the RDA Future Directions website.
