The small group working on the "issues" section of the report has run  
into something that I think is a question for the whole group and list  
subscribers:

Library catalogs today, between them, have a high redundancy of  
bibliographic descriptions for commonly held items. If we anticipate  
much of the bibliographic data becoming linked data, is this  
redundancy a problem? If so, what types of solutions should we be  
looking at? If not, why not?

Thanks!
