10minFRBR ReduxDavid Walker
  • Second meeting with Ex Libris product managers.  Will use these examples:
  1. Hamlet http://bit.ly/2FPzeVb

    This 111-item FRBR group wrongly includes Coriolanus, Cymbeline, and King John in addition to several editions of Hamlet. Many lack a uniform title.

  2. Aeneid http://bit.ly/2BdP9cd

    This 38-item FRBR group includes both complete and partial versions of Virgil's The Aeneid.

    See, e.g., this record which is only book four http://bit.ly/2Dsvt9T.

  3. Canterbury Tales http://bit.ly/2mTP6Ow

    Similar to the Aeneid FRBR group, this 20-item group for the Canterbury Tales includes 5 items that consist only of the work's prologue.

    See, e.g., http://bit.ly/2EVDfGy.
