Lynn Farkas & Helen Rowe

RDA

Presenter Biographies

Lynn Farkas and Helen Rowe are experienced cataloguers, qualified trainers and designated RDA trainers. Canberra library technicians will have encountered Helen and Lynn as library technician educators and/or Libraries Australia trainers.  Others  may be familiar with them through their popular ‘RDA Awareness’ webinar series, or have met them recently as they take RDA training around the country with their RDA Road Show.

Both Helen and Lynn have worked in a variety of libraries, as cataloguers and managers, for more years than they are prepared to admit. They have also written the new RDA-compliant cataloguing module for the New Zealand Open Polytechnic (which provides New Zealand’s only undergraduate degrees in library and information science) – so you’ll be in good hands!
