FRBR – so far so good?
• Improvement: yes: relations between editions.• But: still focused on traditional library material
– Functional Requirements for Bibliographic Records!– Library holdings– Hierarchical– Aggregation (“Work”)– Mainly text

FRBR in Linked Data?
In a digital online linked data environmentFRBR is simply not good enough

•Is an ebook a Manifestation?•PDF, EPUB, MOBI,….•What are the Items?
Libraries should focus more on being a gateway to information instead of information carriers
