Summary:

"In 1998, Functional Requirements for Bibliographic Records (FRBR) was a conceptual model promoted by the International Federation of Library Associations (IFLA) as being the recommended new advancement in cataloging. Functional Requirements for Bibliographic Records (FRBR): Hype or Cure-All? explores the theoretical issues, such as the concept of "works" and the bibliographic relationships of musical works, and also provides a unique survey of most of the systems that actually implement FRBR, such as the AustLit Gateway and WorldCat. This book describes the challenges that accompany implementation of FRBR, and how this abstract approach to cataloging can be a useful, practical tool to help improve library systems."--Jacket.
