Implementing FRBR in Libraries: Key Issues and Future Directions

Abstract

FRBR, and its role in current cataloging practice, is also outlined in relation to International Standard Bibliographic Description (ISBD), Machine-Readable Cataloging (MARC), Resource Description and Access (RDA), Dublin Core Metadata Initiative (DCMI), and emerging standards for the semantic web. [...] many examples of existing FRBR implementation projects are highlighted, some in traditional library settings and some in specialized locales such as consortia, digital libraries, and institutional repositories.
