A weblog following developments around the world in FRBR: Functional Requirements for Bibliographic Records.
Maintained by William Denton, Web Librarian at York University. Suggestions and comments welcome at wtd@pobox.com.
Confused? Try What Is FRBR? (2.8 MB PDF) by Barbara Tillett, or Jenn Riley's introduction. For more, see the basic reading list.
Books: FRBR: A Guide for the Perplexed by Robert Maxwell (ISBN 9780838909508) and Understanding FRBR: What It Is and How It Will Affect Our Retrieval Tools edited by Arlene Taylor (ISBN 9781591585091) (read my chapter FRBR and the History of Cataloging).
A quick note to let you know that I’m now Web Librarian at York University Libraries in Toronto, Ontario. I’m very happy to be there. If you’re ever at York, or in Toronto, feel free to drop me a note. (Feel free even if you’re not, of course.) I’ll be getting out to more conferences, so I’ll see you at those too.
Welcome to York, William! It’ll be nice to have another blogger on staff, that’s for sure.
I’m back from sabbatical in mid-August, we’ll have to get together and decide what we’re going to to do next (ie. take over the world).
