Eden, Library Technology Reports issue available

Filed under: Papers — William Denton @ 7:44 am

Brad Eden reports that the issue he put together for Library Technology Reports (November/December 2006, 42:6), Functional Requirements of Bibliographic Records, is available. As you’d guess from the title, it’s all about FRBR.

Library Technology Reports isn’t a regular magazine or journal and you won’t find it on the newsstand. If you’re not at a university or some large institution like that you may find it difficult to get a copy, but try your public library. They may have access through an online service.
