This study was to suggest the new rules for revision of KCR4 by comparing between ISBD consolidated edition and KCR4. The study methods was to compare the rules in each element after mapping the description elements in each area of ISBD and KCR4. Resultingly, first, content forms and media types must be included for describing resource types. Second, it is needed for rules about the common title and the dependent title. Third, it is needed for rules about "parallel" such as parallel title, parallel other title information, parallel statement of responsibility relating to title, parallel edition statement, parallel statement of responsibility relating to edition, parallel numbering system, parallel place of publication, production and distribution, et. al. Fourth, the rules about material or type of resource specific area must be regulated in terms of the contents of the resource. Fifth, the home country principle must be not applied in describing the place of publication, production and distribution for the consistency. Sixth, it is needed to regulate the extent, other physical details, dimensions, and accompanying material statement for all materials instead of the material description according to material types. Seventh, rule number of notes must be agreed to number of main rules. Eighth, it is needed for detailed rules about resource identifier. This study might be contributed to revise the KCR4.

This study seeks to replace PaRIS Principles and find directions of revising KCR4 by analyzing the international Cataloging Principles 2009(ICP 2009) established in the environment of Machine Readable Cataloging. ICP 2009 was reflected in cataloging rules such as RDA and ISBD 2010 as the minimal principles for uniformity in establishing each nation's cataloging rules. In contrary, KCR4 needs to be revised because it has never been changed after 2003, and has only description rules without any rules for the choice and forms of access points. Therefore, this study aims to grasp requirements that should be reflected in KCR4 through analyzing ICP 2009. In first step, it is to grasp the features of ICP 2009 by comparing PaRIS Principle and ICP 2009 and to compare KCR4 in aspects of ICP 2009. The detailed elements for comparison between ICP 2009 and KCR4 are scope, general principles, entitles, attributes, and relationships, objectives and functions of the catalogue, bibliographic description, access points, foundations for search capabilities as the contents of ICP 2009. As a result, this study could give some directions of KCR4 in the future. First, ISBD 2010 and conceptual models should be reflected in KCR4 in description. Second, it should regulate the authority access points in KCR4 based on ICP 2009. Third, it will describe essential access points of work and expression attributes in bibliographic records and authority records to find works and expression. This study will contribute to guide the national cataloging rules.

This study was to suggest display of RDA resource type in OPAC efficiently. Literature reviews and users test and preference survey were used as research methods. The 4 ways for the display of RDA resource type were suggested. First, GMD and the resource type code(bcode2) invented by library itself as well as leader/06, 007, and 008 field should be used for converting AACR2 resource type to RDA resource type in the bibliographic records. Second, RDA resource type vocabularies applicable to Korean cataloging environment should be designed and described in 33X subfield ${\blacktriangledown}9$ and detailed resource terms described in 34X should be also expressed in OPAC. Third, two option is suggested as content type and carrier type display separately and as content type and carrier type combination. Fourth, 336, 338 filed, leader/07 bibliographic level, 008/30-31 Literary text for sound recordings, 34X field were useful to develop user centered resource type icon. This study would be able to increase the utilization of RDA resource types and help the users to understand the RDA resource type in OPAC.

This study was to find the display considerations of RDA resource type - content type, media type, and carrier type. The Literature review, the case study, and the survey were used as the research method. 5 display strategies were suggested in this study. First, content and carrier types were better displayed than all 3 types of RDA resources. Second, two kinds of algorithm should be considered for RDA resource icon display. One was the combination of the terms of carrier types plus content types icon. The other was the combination of carrier types icon and content types icon in which the terms reflecting types must be included. Third, the subfield of 33x must be used for the paired display of content type and carrier type of multi-types resources. Fourth, in brief display, resource type icon was better positioned on the left and upper side and in detailed display, resource types were better located in description area. Fifth, 'format' was used as display indication phrase. This study would contribute to the design for the resource display by suggesting the practical display considerations of RDA resource type.

This study was for suggesting the test methods in the revision process of the cataloging rules to understand the problem of draft cataloging rules and to apply the new cataloging rules correctly in libraries instead of collecting the opinions by the traditional seminar and conference in the process of revising KCR, KCR2, KCR3, KCR4. For this study, the literature review and the case study were used as the research methods. The case study was based on the US RDA Test by US RDA Test Coordinating Committee. The evaluation areas of the test were cataloging rules, record creation and system development by reflecting the new cataloging rules, user, and cost. The data for the analysis was the creation of bibliographic records and authority records by librarians, and the question investigations that were the use of institutions, librarians, and users. This study would contribute to revise the cataloging rules in future by analyzing the errors of applying new rules to bibliographic record and by investigating the difficulties of applying rules in completing the bibliographic record. Also, the libraries could be easy to decide to implement the new rules from the creation time of bibliographic record by new rules and the learning curve of new rules.
