  1. FRBR: BASICS & INFLUENCE ON AACR A presentation by Kate Harcourt Columbia University Libraries harcourt@columbia.edu April 19, 2004 ARLIS 2004 New York City

  2. Required Reading • Published by K.G. Saur in 1998 and available online. http://www.ifla.org/VII/s13/frbr/frbr.htm http://www.ifla.org/VII/s13/frbr/frbr.pdf IFLA Cataloguing Section’s Working Group on FRBR http://www.ifla.org/VII/s13/wgfrbr/wgfrbr.htm

  3. FRBR IN PERSPECTIVE • Paris Principles in 1961 • ISBDs in 1969 • AACR in 1967 and 1978 • FRBR 1997- • ETC.

  4. FRBR BEGINNINGS • The 1990 Stockholm Seminar commissioned a study to define the functional requirements of bibliographic records. • Worked on by IFLA Study Group on Functional Requirements for Bibliographic Records, 1992-1995 • Approved by IFLA Section on Cataloging, 1997 & published by Saur in 1998 • Incorporated into JSC Strategic Plan for AACR 2001/2002

  5. FRBR GOALS • “to delineate in clearly defined terms the functions performed by the bibliographic record with respect to various media, various applications and various user needs.” • “to recommend a basic level of functionality and basic requirements for records created by national bibliographic agencies” that would meet “essential user needs.” • FRBR is not a new cataloging code. AACR3

  6. ENTITY-RELATIONSHIP MODEL Source: The Free On-line Dictionary of Computing (09 FEB 02) entity-relationship model <database, specification> An approach to data modelling proposed by P. Chen in 1976. The model says that you divide your database in two logical parts, entities (e.g. "customer", "product") and relations ("buys", "pays for"). Entity-relationship diagrams can be used to represent a model.

  7. ORGANIZATION OF THE FRBR REPORT • Part 1 – Definition of Entities and their Attributes • Part 2 – Bibliographic Relationships • Part 3 – A national level bibliographic record for all types of materials • Part 4 – User Tasks (e.g., Find, Identify, Select & Obtain)

  8. ENTITY-RELATIONSHIP MODEL • Entities • Relationships • Attributes Shakespeare Dates Hamlet English Relationship author Entity 1 Entity 2

  9. Group 1: The products of intellectual or artistic endeavor: Work Expression Manifestation Item Group 2: Those responsible for production or custodianship of group 1 entities: Person Corporate Body Group 3: Subjects of works: Concept Object Event Place FRBR ENTITIES

  10. AN ACKNOWLEDGMENT The next few slides were published in Barbara B. Tillett, “Bibliographic Relationships.” In Relationships in the Organization of Knowledge, edited by Carol A. Bean and Rebecca Green, 19-35. Dordrecht: Kluwer Academic Publishers, 2001.

  11. Group 1 Work FRBR is realized through Expression is embodied in Manifestation recursive is exemplified by one Item many

  12. Group 2 Work Expression FRBR Manifestation Item is owned by Person is produced by is realized by Corporate Body is created by many

  13. Work Expression Manifestation Item Person Corporate Body Concept Object Event Place Group 3 Work has as subject FRBR has as subject has as subject many

  15. “FRBERIZING” AACR2 • A new interest in cataloging • Rule revision • AACR3

  16. “FRBERIZING” A RULE • 1.5A3 If an item is available in different formats (e.g., as text and microfilm; as sound disc and sound tape reel), give the physical description of the format in hand) • 1.5A3 If manifestations of a work are available in different formats…

  17. “FRBERIZING” RELATIONSHIPS • Collocation • When is a work or an expression a new work or expression? • Relators • Authority Control in AACR3
