The first edition of the Music Discovery Requirements was released in May 2012 with the endorsement of the Music Library Association (MLA) Board of Directors and is available at: http://www.musiclibraryassoc.org/?page=mdr
The Music Discovery Requirements Update Task Force, formed at the request of MLA's Emerging Technologies and Services Committee (ETSC) and Cataloging and Metadata Committee (CMC) is charged to: Update the Music Discovery Requirements, with particular focus on: RDA updates; MARC updates; incorporating LCGFT and LCMPT, and updating appendices B & C (appendix A will be dropped.) Strongly consider creating an HTML version, and evaluate whether a pdf version needs to be retained. Set a mechanism in place for ongoing revisions to the MDR.
