Kiorgaard, Kartus: A Rose By Any Other Name

Here’s something interesting: Deidre Kiorgaard and Ebe Kartus, two Australian librarians, did a presentation on 8 February 2006 at the VALA 2006 conference: “A Rose By Any Other Name?: From AACR2 to Resource Description and Access.” I just found out about it.

It’s a good overview of what’s going on with AACR2 and RDA and who’s doing what. FRBR and FRAR are mentioned.

Found through Bronwyn’s Library Blog.
