Librarypages podcast
For some relaxing weekend listening, you might be interested in the first in a new podcast series, Librarypages. In the first one, Joan Wilton talks with Prof. Shawne Miksa about cataloguing (9.4 MB MP3, 20 minutes long). (Here’s Miksa’s home page.)
They don’t mention FRBR, but they do discuss Anglo-American Cataloguing Rules and the upcoming FRBR-influenced Resource Description and Access. If you’re a cataloguer or the kind of person who debates MARC records with your friends, there won’t be much new here, but it’s still a good conversation. If you’re from outside the library field it’ll give you some background on cataloguing and give you a sense of what librarians talk about.
