Since our library has been all digital as of 2022, the traditional catalog no longer serves us well, but the ability to provide direct access in systems already being used for daily classwork seems very useful.

I have a couple thoughts both<br>positive and negative on BIBFRAME myself. On the positive end, being<br>able to more easily show up in internet searches sounds fantastic and is my<br>personal favorite pro. But a couple concerns I have is, will BIBFRAME be<br>outdated by the time it reaches widespread adoption? And how much will<br>bibframe increase the quality and ease of catalogs/cataloging in a<br>practical/real world sense, as opposed to<br>theoretical/ philosophical reasons?

This was followed by a brief but animated discussion on BIBFRAME discussion lists, but it seemed the topic was worthy of deeper analysis and more sustained debate. Regardless of whether one agrees with his thesis and arguments, there's no question that Edmunds introduced a very "heterodox" opinion into what is usually a consensus mood on the inevitability of BIBFRAME.
