Dear RDA Members,

we are pleased to inform you that the new RDA web platform is now visible on-line at www.rd-alliance.org<http://www.rd-alliance.org>. This new platform offers tools to interact in the working & interest groups as well as stay informed on the RDA news & updates. By clicking on register on the top right of the web site, you can access all the collaboration tools developed specially for members. Membership is open to any individual who subscribes to the RDA Guiding Principles and as a Member you may join and form Working and Interest Groups and participate in RDA elections.

Once you have registered and accepted the principles we invite you to check out the Working & Interest group areas that each contain their own mailing lists, wiki, discussion posts and file managers, click on subscribe to this group to actively participate in the discussions. The RDA Intranet Area Link gives you quick & direct access to the RDA web tools.

Under the RDA Groups we have set up an RDA Web Platform group so that you can use this to post your comments, queries, feedback and suggestions for the RDA Web Platform (this is its first release). More features and functionalities are planned and will be added to it over the coming months and we ask you, the users, to assist us in improving it and identifying any bugs. The manual detailing the web functionalities is available for downloading in this area.

I look forward to receiving your feedback and am available for any queries or further information you may require.
Kind regards
Hilary
RDA Secretariat
