Libraries lend cake pans:

OCLC is the FIFA of libraries

Principles:

Minimum Useful Differentiation - Catalog items need the minimum amount of markup to differentiate them from other items in the collection
- ie. Author+title, ISBN, Barcode, whatever
The user should only add as much information as is usefuil to them
The more descrtiptor markup an item has the more cannonical it is
markup includes facts, categories "hashtag" includes interpretation
