The other thing I like about it, other than it is activity-driven, is
that it is about the "use" of information, not just finding resources.
I feel like the FRBr model, ending with "obtain" ignores a whole swath
of user activities that only begin once someone has obtained a
resource. Yet manipulation of bibliographic resources is key to a
whole host of activities that take place after a person passes by the
circ desk.
