Request a free 30-day trial of the RDA Toolkit: https://access.rdatoolkit.org/FreeTrial

For those who are participating in the NMLA 2022 Pre-conference: Wrangling your Metadata with the new RDA Toolkit, we recommend that you sign up for your free trial about a week before the conference (around October 19th). This will give you plenty of time to get your trial started and give you a few weeks of access to the toolkit afterwards.
