Functional Requirements for Bibliographic Records (FRBR) is a conceptual model based on Entity-Relationship model that serves as the basis for relating specific attributes and relationships to the various user tasks in consulting bibliographic records. FRBR identifies specific user tasks that bibliographic records are intended to fulfill viz., find, identify, select, obtain. It also recommends a set of elements for inclusion in national bibliographic records.<\/p>\r\n \r\n\r\n2. Background<\/strong>\r\n\r\n \r\n

International Conference on Cataloguing Principles (ICCP) was held in 1961 under the auspices of IFLA to re-examine the theory and practice of cataloguing at the international level. International Meeting of Cataloguing Experts (IMCE) held in Copenhagen in 1969 resolved to establish an international standard for bibliographic description. As a result, the International Standard<\/em> Bibliographic Description for Monographic Publications <\/em>was published in 1971. The Paris Principles and the ISBDs served as the foundation of various national and international cataloguing codes.<\/p>\r\n \r\n

But the tremendous changes in information and communication technology had massive impact on cataloguing world in 1980s onwards. IFLA recognized the changes and identified the following factors:<\/p>\r\n \r\n\r\ni.\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 Development of automated systems for the creation and processing of bibliographic data\r\n\r\n \r\n\r\nii.\u00a0\u00a0 Growth of large-scale bibliographic databases participating in shared cataloguing programs.\r\n\r\n \r\n\r\niii.\u00a0\u00a0 Economic pressures on the libraries and to do more and more \u201cminimal level\u201d cataloguing.\r\n\r\n \r\n\r\niv.\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 New forms of electronic publishing, and the advent of networked access to information resources\r\n\r\n<\/div>\r\n \r\n

\r\n

In 1990 a conference was held in Stockholm sponsored by the IFLA Universal Bibliographic Control and International MARC Programme and the IFLA Division of Bibliographic Control, at which these environmental changes were discussed. And a Study group was appointed in 1991<\/p>\r\n \r\n

IFLA Study Group on the Functional Requirements for Bibliographic Records submitted draft in 1996 and was approved by the Standing Committee of the IFLA Section on Cataloguing in September 1997. And FRBR was published in 1998.<\/p>\r\n \r\n

The methodology used in FRBR is Entity-Relationship model (E-R model) which has been borrowed from database technology. E-R model is a conceptual model that represents data of an information domain in terms of entities, attributes and relationships. It was proposed by Prof. P.P. Chen in 1976<\/p>\r\n \r\n\r\n3. Entities<\/strong>\r\n\r\n \r\n

Entities are the basic objects of E-R model. Whatever exists independently is called entity. It may be a physical object ( for example, a book, a student, an employee) or it may be an object with conceptual existence (for example, a library, a publisher, a university course). FRBR has identified three groups of entities.<\/p>\r\n \r\n\r\n3.1 Group 1 Entities: Work, Expression, Manifestation, Item<\/strong>\r\n\r\n \r\n

The entities in the first group (Figure 3.1) represent the different aspects of user interests in the products of intellectual or artistic endeavour. The entities defined as work<\/em> (a distinct intellectual or artistic creation) and expression<\/em> (the intellectual or artistic realization of a work<\/em>) reflect intellectual or artistic content. The entities defined as manifestation<\/em> (the physical embodiment of an expression<\/em> of a work<\/em>) and item<\/em> (a single exemplar of a manifestation<\/em>), on the other hand, reflect physical form.<\/p>\r\n \r\n\r\n3.1.1 Work<\/strong>\r\n\r\n<\/div>\r\n

\r\n

A work<\/em> is an abstract entity; there is no single material object one can point to as the work<\/em>. Work i<\/em>s recognised through individual realizations or expressions <\/em>of the work<\/em>, but the work <\/em>itself exists only in the commonality of content between and among the various expressions<\/em> of the work<\/em>. For example, Homer\u2019s Iliad<\/em> as a work does not refer to any particular recitation or text of the work<\/em>, but the intellectual creation that lies behind all the various expressions <\/em>of the work<\/em>.<\/p>\r\n \r\n\r\nExamples:<\/em><\/strong>\r\n\r\n \r\n\r\n\u25a1\u00a0 w <\/strong>Henry Gray\u2019s Anatomy of the human body<\/em>\r\n\r\n1<\/strong>\r\n\r\n\u25a1\u00a0 e <\/strong>text and illustrations for the first edition\r\n\r\n1<\/strong>\r\n\r\n\u25a1\u00a0 e <\/strong>text and illustrations for the second edition\r\n\r\n2<\/strong>\r\n\r\n\u00a0\u00a0<\/span>e <\/strong>text and illustrations for the third edition<\/span>\r\n\r\n<\/div>\r\n

\r\n\r\n3<\/strong>\r\n\r\n\u25a1\u00a0 \u2026.<\/strong>\r\n\r\n \r\n\r\n3.1.2 Expression<\/strong>\r\n\r\n \r\n

An expression<\/em> is the specific intellectual or artistic form that a work<\/em> takes each time it is \u201crealized.\u201d Expression<\/em> encompasses, for example, the specific words, sentences, paragraphs, etc. that result from the realization of a work<\/em> in the form of a text, or the particular sounds, phrasing, etc. resulting from the realization of a musical work<\/em>. The boundaries of the entity expression<\/em> are defined, however, so as to exclude aspects of physical form, such as typeface and page layout, that are not integral to the intellectual or artistic realization of the work<\/em> as such. When an expression <\/em>is accompanied by augmentations, such as illustrations, notes, glosses, etc. that are not integral to the intellectual or artistic realization of the work<\/em>, such augmentations are considered to be separate expressions <\/em>of their own separate work(s)<\/em>. Such augmentations may, or may not, be considered significant enough to warrant distinct bibliographic identification.<\/p>\r\n \r\n\r\nExamples:<\/em><\/strong>\r\n\r\n \r\n\r\n\u25a1\u00a0 w <\/strong>Ellwanger\u2019s Tennis--bis zum Turnierspieler<\/em>\r\n\r\n1<\/strong>\r\n\r\n\u25a1\u00a0 e <\/strong>the original German text\r\n\r\n1<\/strong>\r\n\r\n\u25a1\u00a0 e <\/strong>the English translation by Wendy Gill\r\n\r\n2<\/strong>\r\n\r\n \r\n\r\n\u25a1\u00a0 \u2026.<\/strong>\r\n\r\n \r\n\r\n3.1.3 Manifestation<\/strong>\r\n\r\n<\/div>\r\n

\r\n

The entity defined as manifestation<\/em> encompasses a wide range of materials, including manuscripts, books, periodicals, maps, posters, sound recordings, films, video recordings, CD-ROMs, multimedia kits, etc. As an entity, manifestation <\/em>represents all the physical objects that bear the same characteristics, in respect to both intellectual content and physical form.<\/p>\r\n \r\n

When a work<\/em> is realized, the resulting expression<\/em> of the work<\/em> may be physically embodied on or in a medium such as paper, audio tape, video tape, canvas, plaster, etc. That physical embodiment constitutes a manifestation<\/em> of the work. In some cases there may be only a single physical exemplar produced of that manifestation<\/em> of the work<\/em> (e.g., an author\u2019s manuscript, a tape recorded for an oral history archive, an original oil painting, etc.). In other cases there are multiple copies produced in order to facilitate public dissemination or distribution. In those cases there is normally a more formal production process involved, and a publisher, producer, or distributor takes responsibility for the process.<\/p>\r\n \r\n\r\n<\/div>\r\n

\r\n

The boundaries between one manifestation<\/em> and another are drawn on the basis of both intellectual content and physical form. When the production process involves changes in physical form the resulting product is considered a new manifestation<\/em>. Changes in physical form include changes affecting display characteristics (e.g., a change in typeface, size of font, page layout, etc.), changes in physical medium (e.g., a change from paper to microfilm as the medium of conveyance), and changes in the container (e.g., a change from cassette to cartridge as the container for a tape). Where the production process involves a publisher, producer, distributor, etc., and there are changes signaled in the product that are related to publication, marketing, etc. (e.g., a change in publisher, repackaging, etc.), the resulting product may be considered a new manifestation<\/em>. Whenever the production process involves modifications, additions, deletions, etc. that affect the intellectual or artistic content, the result is a new manifestation<\/em> embodying a new expression<\/em> of the work<\/em>.<\/p>\r\n \r\n\r\nExamples:<\/em><\/strong>\r\n\r\n \r\n\r\n\u25a1\u00a0 w<\/strong>1<\/strong> Harry Lindgren\u2019s Geometric dissections<\/em>\r\n\r\n \r\n\r\n\u25a1\u00a0 e<\/strong>1<\/strong> original text entitled Geometric dissections<\/em>\r\n\r\n \r\n\r\n\u25a1\u00a0 m<\/strong>1<\/strong> the book published in 1964 by Van Nostrand\r\n\r\n \r\n\r\n\u25a1\u00a0 e<\/strong>2<\/strong> revised text entitled Recreational problems in geometric<\/em> dissections ....<\/em>\r\n\r\n \r\n\r\n\u25a1\u00a0 m<\/strong>1<\/strong> the book published in 1972 by Dover\r\n\r\n \r\n\r\n3.1.4 Item<\/strong>\r\n\r\n<\/div>\r\n

\r\n\r\n \r\n

The entity defined as item<\/em> is a concrete entity. It is in many instances a single physical object (e.g., a copy of a one-volume monograph, a single audio cassette, etc.). There are instances, however, where the entity defined as item<\/em> comprises more than one physical object (e.g., a monograph issued as two separately bound volumes, a recording issued on three separate compact discs, etc.).<\/p>\r\n \r\n\r\nExamples:<\/em><\/strong>\r\n\r\n \r\n\r\n\u25a1\u00a0 w <\/strong>Ronald Hayman\u2019s Playback<\/em>\r\n\r\n1<\/strong>\r\n\r\n\u25a1 e<\/strong> the author\u2019s text edited for publication\r\n\r\n1<\/strong>\r\n\r\n\u25a1\u00a0 m <\/strong>the book published in 1973 by Davis-Poynter\r\n\r\n1<\/strong>\r\n\r\n<\/div>\r\n\u25a1 <\/span>i<\/strong> copy autographed by the author<\/span>\r\n

The relationships depicted in the diagram indicate that a work<\/em> may be realized through one or more than one expression<\/em> (hence the double arrow on the line that links work<\/em> to expression<\/em>). An expression<\/em>, on the other hand, is the realization of one and only one work <\/em>(hence the single arrow on the reverse direction of that line linking expression<\/em> to work<\/em>). An expression<\/em> may be embodied in one or more than one manifestation<\/em>; likewise a manifestation<\/em> may embody one or more than one expression<\/em>. A manifestation<\/em>, in turn,may be exemplified by one or more than one item<\/em>; but an item <\/em>may exemplify one and only one manifestation<\/em>.<\/p>\r\n \r\n\r\n\"\"\r\n\r\n3.2 Group2 Entities: Person, Corporate Body<\/strong>\r\n\r\n \r\n

The entities in the second group (outlined in bold in Figure 3.2) represent those responsible for the intellectual or artistic content, the physical production and dissemination, or the custodianship of the entities in the first group. The entities in the second group include person<\/em> (an individual) and corporate body <\/em>(an organization or group of individuals and\/or organizations).<\/p>\r\n \r\n

The diagram depicts the type of \u201cresponsibility\u201d relationships that exist between entities in the second group and the entities in the first group. The diagram indicates that a work<\/em> may be created by one or more than one person<\/em> and\/or one or more than one corporate body<\/em>. Conversely, a person<\/em> or a corporate body<\/em> may create one or more than one work<\/em>. An expression<\/em> may be realized by one\u00a0or more than one <\/span>person<\/em> and\/or <\/span>corporate body<\/em>; and a <\/span>person<\/em> or <\/span>corporate body<\/em> may realize one or more than one <\/span>expression<\/em>. A <\/span>manifestation<\/em> may be produced by one or more than one <\/span>person<\/em> or <\/span>corporate body<\/em>; a<\/span> person <\/em>or<\/span> corporate body <\/em>may produce one or more than one<\/span> manifestation<\/em>. An<\/span> item <\/em>may be owned by one or more than one<\/span> person <\/em>and\/or<\/span> corporate body<\/em>; a<\/span> person <\/em>or<\/span> corporate body <\/em>may own one or more than one<\/span> item<\/em>.<\/span><\/p>\r\n\r\n<\/div>\r\n

\r\n\r\n \r\n\r\n3.2.1 Person<\/strong>\r\n\r\n \r\n\r\nThe entity defined as person<\/em> encompasses individuals that are deceased as well as those that are living.\r\n\r\n \r\n\r\nExamples:<\/em><\/strong>\r\n\r\n \r\n\r\n\u25a1\u00a0 p1 Margaret Atwood\r\n\r\n \r\n\r\n\u25a1\u00a0 p2\u00a0 William Shakespeare\r\n\r\n \r\n\r\n\u25a1 p3\u00a0 Rabindranath Tagore\r\n\r\n\u25a1\u00a0 p4 Anatole France\r\n\r\n \r\n\r\n\u25a1\u00a0 \u2026.\r\n\r\n \r\n

Persons <\/em>are treated as entities only to the extent that they are involved in the creation or realization of a work<\/em> (e.g., as authors, composers, artists, editors, translators, directors, performers, etc.), or are the subject of a work<\/em> (e.g., as the subject of a biographical or autobiographical work<\/em>, of a history, etc.).<\/p>\r\n \r\n\r\n3.2.2 Corporate Body<\/strong>\r\n\r\n \r\n

The entity defined as corporate body<\/em> encompasses organizations and groups of individuals and\/or organizations that are identified by a particular name, including occasional groups and groups that are constituted as meetings, conferences, congresses, expeditions, exhibitions, festivals, fairs, etc. The entity also encompasses organizations that act as territorial authorities, exercising or claiming to exercise government functions over a certain territory, such as a federation, a state, a region, a local municipality, etc. The entity encompasses organizations and groups that are defunct as well as those that continue to operate.<\/p>\r\n \r\n\r\nExamples<\/em><\/strong>\r\n\r\n<\/div>\r\n

The entities in the third group represent an additional set of entities that serve as the subjects of works<\/em>. The group includes concept <\/em>(an abstract notion or idea), object <\/em>(a material thing), event <\/em>(an action or occurrence), and place<\/em> (a location).<\/p>\r\n \r\n

The diagram depicts the \u201csubject\u201d relationships between entities in the third group and the work<\/em> entity in the first group. The diagram indicates that a work<\/em> may have as its subject one or more than one concept, object, event,<\/em> and\/or place<\/em>. Conversely, a concept, object, event,<\/em> and\/or place<\/em> may be the subject of one or more than one work<\/em>.<\/p>\r\n\r\n<\/div>\r\n

\r\n\r\nThe diagram also depicts the \u201csubject\u201d relationships between work<\/em> and the entities in the first and second groups. The diagram indicates that a work may have as its subject one or more than one work<\/em>, expression<\/em>, manifestation<\/em>, item<\/em>, person<\/em>, and\/or corporate body.<\/strong><\/em>\r\n\r\n \r\n\r\n3.3.1 Concept<\/strong>\r\n\r\n \r\n\r\nThe entity defined as concept<\/em> encompasses a comprehensive range of abstractions that may be the subject of a work<\/em>: fields of knowledge, disciplines, schools of thought (philosophies, religions, political ideologies, etc.), theories, processes, techniques, practices, etc. A concept<\/em> may be broad in nature or narrowly defined and precise.\r\n\r\n \r\n\r\nExamples:<\/em><\/strong>\r\n\r\n \r\n\r\n\u25a1\u00a0 c<\/strong>1<\/strong> Economics\r\n\r\n \r\n\r\n\u25a1\u00a0 c<\/strong>2<\/strong> Romanticism\r\n\r\n \r\n\r\n\u25a1\u00a0 c<\/strong>3<\/strong> Cognitive science\r\n\r\n \r\n\r\n\u25a1\u00a0 c4 Linguistics\r\n\r\n \r\n\r\n3.3.2 Object<\/strong>\r\n\r\n \r\n\r\nThe entity defined as object<\/em> encompasses a comprehensive range of material things that may be the subject of a work<\/em>: animate and inanimate objects occurring in nature; fixed, movable, and moving objects that are the product of human creation; objects that no longer exist.\r\n\r\n \r\n\r\nExamples:<\/em><\/strong>\r\n\r\n \r\n\r\n\u25a1\u00a0 o<\/strong>1<\/strong> Buckingham Palace\r\n\r\n \r\n\r\n\u25a1\u00a0 o<\/strong>2<\/strong> Taj Mahal\r\n\r\n \r\n\r\n\u25a1\u00a0 o<\/strong>3<\/strong> Apollo 11\r\n\r\n \r\n\r\n\u25a1\u00a0 o<\/strong>4<\/strong> The Eiffel Tower\r\n\r\n \r\n\r\n\u25a1\u00a0 \u2026.\r\n\r\n \r\n\r\n3.3.3 Event<\/strong>\r\n\r\n<\/div>\r\n

Relationship<\/strong>\r\n\r\n \r\n

A relationship is an association between or among entities. Relationships serve as the vehicle for depicting the link between one entity and another, and thus as the means of assisting the user to \u201cnavigate\u201d the universe that is represented in a bibliography, catalogue, or bibliographic database.<\/p>\r\n\r\n<\/div>\r\n \r\n

\r\n

Relationships may be reflected in bibliographic records in a number of ways. The following types of relationships have in identified in FRBR.<\/p>\r\n \r\n\r\n5.1 Relationships Between Work, Expression, Manifestation, and Item\r\n\r\n \r\n\r\n5.2 Relationships to Persons and Corporate Bodies\r\n\r\n \r\n\r\n5.3 Subject Relationships\r\n\r\n \r\n\r\n5.4 Other Relationships Between Group 1 Entities\r\n\r\n \r\n\r\n5.4.1 Work-to-Work Relationships\r\n\r\n \r\n\r\n5.4.2 Expression-to-Expression Relationships\r\n\r\n \r\n\r\n5.4.3 Expression-to-Work Relationships\r\n\r\n \r\n\r\n5.4.4 Manifestation-to-Manifestation Relationships\r\n\r\n \r\n\r\n5.4.5 Manifestation-to-Item Relationships\r\n\r\n \r\n\r\n5.4.6 Item-to-Item Relationships\r\n\r\n \r\n\r\n \r\n\r\n6. User Tasks<\/strong>\r\n\r\n \r\n

The FRBR model serves as a framework for analyzing the uses that are made of bibliographic data with specific reference to the entity that is the object of the user\u2019s interest, and to the attributes and relationships that are relevant to the task being performed by the user. Each attribute and relationship can be mapped directly to the user tasks they support.<\/p>\r\n \r\n

The tasks are defined in relation to the elementary uses that are made of the data by the user. Four generic user tasks have been defined:<\/p>\r\n \r\n\r\n6.1 Find<\/strong>\r\n\r\n \r\n

To find<\/em> entities that correspond to the user\u2019s stated search criteria (i.e., to locate either a single entity or a set of entities in a file or database as the result of a search using an attribute or relationship of the entity);<\/p>\r\n \r\n\r\n \r\n\r\n6.2 Identify<\/strong>\r\n\r\n \r\n

To identify<\/em> an entity (i.e., to confirm that the entity described corresponds to the entity sought, or to distinguish between two or more entities with similar characteristics);<\/p>\r\n \r\n\r\n \r\n\r\n6.3 select<\/strong>\r\n\r\n<\/div>\r\n

\r\n

To select<\/em> an entity that is appropriate to the user\u2019s needs (i.e., to choose an entity that meets the user\u2019s requirements with respect to content, physical format, etc., or to reject an entity as being inappropriate to the user\u2019s needs);<\/p>\r\n \r\n\r\n \r\n\r\n6.4 Obtain<\/strong>\r\n\r\n \r\n

To acquire or obtain<\/em> access to the entity described (i.e., to acquire an entity through purchase, loan, etc., or to access an entity electronically through an online connection to a remote computer).<\/p>\r\n \r\n\r\n7. Conclusion:<\/strong>\r\n\r\n \r\n

FRBR is a concptual model in relation to bibliographic universe which has great potentiality to design information retrival system since it is based on user tasks. Resource Description and Access (RDA) \u2013 the new cataloguing code has adopted FRBR model. Many FRBR-based systems have already come out, for example, OCLC FictionFinder, Virtua ILS, RedLightGreen, BIBSYS etc. FRBR provides a revolutionary approach to study cataloguing theory and practice. It is hoped that FRBR will greatly influence the catalogues and cataloguers in the coming days.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

Functional Requirements for Bibliographic Records (FRBR)<\/strong><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

1. Introduction<\/strong><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Functional Requirements for Bibliographic Records (FRBR) is a conceptual model based on Entity-Relationship model that serves as the basis for relating specific attributes and relationships to the various user tasks in consulting bibliographic records. FRBR identifies specific user tasks that bibliographic records are intended to fulfill viz., find, identify, select, obtain. It also recommends a set of elements for inclusion in national bibliographic records.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

2. Background<\/strong><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

International Conference on Cataloguing Principles (ICCP) was held in 1961 under the auspices of IFLA to re-examine the theory and practice of cataloguing at the international level. International Meeting of Cataloguing Experts (IMCE) held in Copenhagen in 1969 resolved to establish an international standard for bibliographic description. As a result, the International Standard<\/em> Bibliographic Description for Monographic Publications <\/em>was published in 1971. The Paris Principles and the ISBDs served as the foundation of various national and international cataloguing codes.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

But the tremendous changes in information and communication technology had massive impact on cataloguing world in 1980s onwards. IFLA recognized the changes and identified the following factors:<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

i.\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 Development of automated systems for the creation and processing of bibliographic data<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

ii.\u00a0\u00a0 Growth of large-scale bibliographic databases participating in shared cataloguing programs.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

iii.\u00a0\u00a0 Economic pressures on the libraries and to do more and more \u201cminimal level\u201d cataloguing.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

iv.\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 New forms of electronic publishing, and the advent of networked access to information resources<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

 <\/p>\n

\n

In 1990 a conference was held in Stockholm sponsored by the IFLA Universal Bibliographic Control and International MARC Programme and the IFLA Division of Bibliographic Control, at which these environmental changes were discussed. And a Study group was appointed in 1991<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

IFLA Study Group on the Functional Requirements for Bibliographic Records submitted draft in 1996 and was approved by the Standing Committee of the IFLA Section on Cataloguing in September 1997. And FRBR was published in 1998.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

The methodology used in FRBR is Entity-Relationship model (E-R model) which has been borrowed from database technology. E-R model is a conceptual model that represents data of an information domain in terms of entities, attributes and relationships. It was proposed by Prof. P.P. Chen in 1976<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

3. Entities<\/strong><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Entities are the basic objects of E-R model. Whatever exists independently is called entity. It may be a physical object ( for example, a book, a student, an employee) or it may be an object with conceptual existence (for example, a library, a publisher, a university course). FRBR has identified three groups of entities.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

3.1 Group 1 Entities: Work, Expression, Manifestation, Item<\/strong><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

The entities in the first group (Figure 3.1) represent the different aspects of user interests in the products of intellectual or artistic endeavour. The entities defined as work<\/em> (a distinct intellectual or artistic creation) and expression<\/em> (the intellectual or artistic realization of a work<\/em>) reflect intellectual or artistic content. The entities defined as manifestation<\/em> (the physical embodiment of an expression<\/em> of a work<\/em>) and item<\/em> (a single exemplar of a manifestation<\/em>), on the other hand, reflect physical form.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

3.1.1 Work<\/strong><\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

A work<\/em> is an abstract entity; there is no single material object one can point to as the work<\/em>. Work i<\/em>s recognised through individual realizations or expressions <\/em>of the work<\/em>, but the work <\/em>itself exists only in the commonality of content between and among the various expressions<\/em> of the work<\/em>. For example, Homer\u2019s Iliad<\/em> as a work does not refer to any particular recitation or text of the work<\/em>, but the intellectual creation that lies behind all the various expressions <\/em>of the work<\/em>.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

3.1.2 Expression<\/strong><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

An expression<\/em> is the specific intellectual or artistic form that a work<\/em> takes each time it is \u201crealized.\u201d Expression<\/em> encompasses, for example, the specific words, sentences, paragraphs, etc. that result from the realization of a work<\/em> in the form of a text, or the particular sounds, phrasing, etc. resulting from the realization of a musical work<\/em>. The boundaries of the entity expression<\/em> are defined, however, so as to exclude aspects of physical form, such as typeface and page layout, that are not integral to the intellectual or artistic realization of the work<\/em> as such. When an expression <\/em>is accompanied by augmentations, such as illustrations, notes, glosses, etc. that are not integral to the intellectual or artistic realization of the work<\/em>, such augmentations are considered to be separate expressions <\/em>of their own separate work(s)<\/em>. Such augmentations may, or may not, be considered significant enough to warrant distinct bibliographic identification.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Examples:<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

3.1.3 Manifestation<\/strong><\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

The entity defined as manifestation<\/em> encompasses a wide range of materials, including manuscripts, books, periodicals, maps, posters, sound recordings, films, video recordings, CD-ROMs, multimedia kits, etc. As an entity, manifestation <\/em>represents all the physical objects that bear the same characteristics, in respect to both intellectual content and physical form.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

When a work<\/em> is realized, the resulting expression<\/em> of the work<\/em> may be physically embodied on or in a medium such as paper, audio tape, video tape, canvas, plaster, etc. That physical embodiment constitutes a manifestation<\/em> of the work. In some cases there may be only a single physical exemplar produced of that manifestation<\/em> of the work<\/em> (e.g., an author\u2019s manuscript, a tape recorded for an oral history archive, an original oil painting, etc.). In other cases there are multiple copies produced in order to facilitate public dissemination or distribution. In those cases there is normally a more formal production process involved, and a publisher, producer, or distributor takes responsibility for the process.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

The boundaries between one manifestation<\/em> and another are drawn on the basis of both intellectual content and physical form. When the production process involves changes in physical form the resulting product is considered a new manifestation<\/em>. Changes in physical form include changes affecting display characteristics (e.g., a change in typeface, size of font, page layout, etc.), changes in physical medium (e.g., a change from paper to microfilm as the medium of conveyance), and changes in the container (e.g., a change from cassette to cartridge as the container for a tape). Where the production process involves a publisher, producer, distributor, etc., and there are changes signaled in the product that are related to publication, marketing, etc. (e.g., a change in publisher, repackaging, etc.), the resulting product may be considered a new manifestation<\/em>. Whenever the production process involves modifications, additions, deletions, etc. that affect the intellectual or artistic content, the result is a new manifestation<\/em> embodying a new expression<\/em> of the work<\/em>.<\/p>\n

3.1.4 Item<\/strong><\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

 <\/p>\n

The entity defined as item<\/em> is a concrete entity. It is in many instances a single physical object (e.g., a copy of a one-volume monograph, a single audio cassette, etc.). There are instances, however, where the entity defined as item<\/em> comprises more than one physical object (e.g., a monograph issued as two separately bound volumes, a recording issued on three separate compact discs, etc.).<\/p>\n

The relationships depicted in the diagram indicate that a work<\/em> may be realized through one or more than one expression<\/em> (hence the double arrow on the line that links work<\/em> to expression<\/em>). An expression<\/em>, on the other hand, is the realization of one and only one work <\/em>(hence the single arrow on the reverse direction of that line linking expression<\/em> to work<\/em>). An expression<\/em> may be embodied in one or more than one manifestation<\/em>; likewise a manifestation<\/em> may embody one or more than one expression<\/em>. A manifestation<\/em>, in turn,may be exemplified by one or more than one item<\/em>; but an item <\/em>may exemplify one and only one manifestation<\/em>.<\/p>\n

5. Relationship<\/strong><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

A relationship is an association between or among entities. Relationships serve as the vehicle for depicting the link between one entity and another, and thus as the means of assisting the user to \u201cnavigate\u201d the universe that is represented in a bibliography, catalogue, or bibliographic database.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

 <\/p>\n

\n

Relationships may be reflected in bibliographic records in a number of ways. The following types of relationships have in identified in FRBR.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

5.1 Relationships Between Work, Expression, Manifestation, and Item<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

5.2 Relationships to Persons and Corporate Bodies<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

5.3 Subject Relationships<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

5.4 Other Relationships Between Group 1 Entities<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

5.4.1 Work-to-Work Relationships<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

5.4.2 Expression-to-Expression Relationships<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

5.4.3 Expression-to-Work Relationships<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

5.4.4 Manifestation-to-Manifestation Relationships<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

5.4.5 Manifestation-to-Item Relationships<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

5.4.6 Item-to-Item Relationships<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

6. User Tasks<\/strong><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

The FRBR model serves as a framework for analyzing the uses that are made of bibliographic data with specific reference to the entity that is the object of the user\u2019s interest, and to the attributes and relationships that are relevant to the task being performed by the user. Each attribute and relationship can be mapped directly to the user tasks they support.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

The tasks are defined in relation to the elementary uses that are made of the data by the user. Four generic user tasks have been defined:<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

6.1 Find<\/strong><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

To find<\/em> entities that correspond to the user\u2019s stated search criteria (i.e., to locate either a single entity or a set of entities in a file or database as the result of a search using an attribute or relationship of the entity);<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

6.2 Identify<\/strong><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

To identify<\/em> an entity (i.e., to confirm that the entity described corresponds to the entity sought, or to distinguish between two or more entities with similar characteristics);<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

6.3 select<\/strong><\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

To select<\/em> an entity that is appropriate to the user\u2019s needs (i.e., to choose an entity that meets the user\u2019s requirements with respect to content, physical format, etc., or to reject an entity as being inappropriate to the user\u2019s needs);<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

6.4 Obtain<\/strong><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

To acquire or obtain<\/em> access to the entity described (i.e., to acquire an entity through purchase, loan, etc., or to access an entity electronically through an online connection to a remote computer).<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

7. Conclusion:<\/strong><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

FRBR is a concptual model in relation to bibliographic universe which has great potentiality to design information retrival system since it is based on user tasks. Resource Description and Access (RDA) \u2013 the new cataloguing code has adopted FRBR model. Many FRBR-based systems have already come out, for example, OCLC FictionFinder, Virtua ILS, RedLightGreen, BIBSYS etc. FRBR provides a revolutionary approach to study cataloguing theory and practice. It is hoped that FRBR will greatly influence the catalogues and cataloguers in the coming days.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
