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).
Back in August I posted notes on what I saw at the IFLA 2008 conference in Quebec City. The official minutes of all of the Cataloguing Section meetings (244 KB PDF) are now online.
