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).
I told you that Arlene Taylor’s collection Understanding FRBR: What It Is and How It Will Affect Our Retrieval Tools was out. Robert Maxwell, who works at the Brigham Young University library, has a book out too: FRBR: A Guide for the Perplexed. I mentioned it before when it was announced, but now it’s out and you can order a copy.
I haven’t seen it yet, but if you have, feel free to leave a comment or review. Two FRBR books in two months!
