Ed Jones

Ed Jones has been cataloging serials, on and off, since 1976, and over the years has authored several scholarly papers and made numerous presentations on serials cataloging, the FRBR and FRAD conceptual models, and RDA. He has been a member of the CONSER Operations Committee, on and off, since 1981, and recently served as an RDA advisor. In 1995, he received his doctorate in library and information science from the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign. He is currently associate director for assessment and technical services at National University in San Diego.

"A refreshing lack of tentativeness makes this a usable manual for hands-on practitioners. There is no ‘hemming and hawing' over matters where RDA is still a moving target and continuing to develop … Working catalogers will be able to use this manual for day-to-day practice and will find it of lasting value as a reference manual for unusual or difficult cases. It will be found useful in libraries large and small and can serve as a reassuring introduction to the cataloging of serial publications. Deft deployment of wry humor makes the book pleasantly readable."
— Collection Building

"Highly recommended for any situation – technical service departments or library students – where serials need to be catalogued using RDA protocols."
— Australian Library Journal
