Assertion (A) : RDA is a new content standard for cataloguing and replaces AACR2.
Reason (R) : AACR2 is not a content standard.
Answer: C
(A) is true, but (R) is false.
Resource Description and Access (RDA), published in 2010 and adopted by major libraries from 2013, is a content standard for describing resources, built on the FRBR model. It was designed to replace AACR2. Assertion A is true.
Reason R is false: AACR2 is itself a content standard, a set of rules for what information to record in a catalogue entry and how to formulate it. RDA replaced one content standard with another, so it is wrong to say AACR2 is not one.
