FRBR Talk


Wiliam Denton mentions on his FRBR Blog that he will be speaking at the Ontario Library Association?s 2008 Superconference. I just finished his essay in Arlene Taylor?s Understanding FRBR: What It Is and How It Will Affect Our Retrieval Tools (Amazon WorldCat) and if speaks even half as well as he writes it should be an enjoyable session. If you want or need a history of cataloging, his essay would be a good start.
