Dudley, review of the two FRBR books
Virginia Dudley wrote a book review of Maxwell’s FRBR: A Guide for the Perplexed and Taylor’s Understanding FRBR: What It Is and How It Will Affect Our Retrieval Tools in Library Resources & Technical Services 52: 3 (July 2008).
She concludes:
I would recommend both of these books to any librarian who wants to learn more about FRBR. Maxwell’s comprehensive overview is the stronger of the two, and would be an excellent starting place. Although Understanding FRBR has some weak areas, it does have many fine chapters, and overall it contributes important insights into the conceptual model we call FRBR.
