Comments from users“… helped us to understand more about RDA and FRBR”
“… used it when teaching classes …. The students were rather fascinated to be able to see the full WEMI structure in the database.”
“In my opinion the best thing about the Sandbox is its clarity. It makes it easy to explain the model. In a sense it has solved the problem with FRBR in MARC environment.”
