RDA and FRBR aim to modernize cataloging practices by moving away from MARC and AACR2 towards a more flexible model based on user tasks. RDA splits the general material designation field into separate fields for content, media, and carrier types. It also requires transcribing entire statements of responsibility and added entries for all contributors. While intended to simplify practices, RDA's development faced political challenges. Its impact remains uncertain as catalogers and systems adapt to the new model.
De-Mystifying FRBR: A Whirlwind IntroductionJenn Riley
Jenn Riley gave a presentation on FRBR (Functional Requirements for Bibliographic Records) at the 2006 Indiana Library Federation Annual Conference. She introduced the core concepts of FRBR, including entities, attributes, relationships, and user tasks. She discussed the FRBR group 1, 2, and 3 entities and how they are related. Riley also covered the Library of Congress' proposals to fit FRBR into existing MARC record structures and why libraries should care about FRBR, such as to improve user search and discovery experiences. She concluded by mentioning some existing FRBR implementations and encouraging attendees to learn more about FRBR.
RDA is based on FRBR, the Functional Requirements for Bibliographic Records. FRBR was developed by IFLA in the 1990s to delineate the functions of bibliographic records. It defines core entities like works, expressions, manifestations and items. RDA incorporates FRBR concepts like treating the first author as the primary access point even if there are many authors. Some libraries have given conditional approval to adopt RDA but want changes to simplify language and address issues with using MARC as the encoding format.
This document provides an overview of FRBR (Functional Requirements for Bibliographic Records), including:
1. FRBR defines user tasks like finding and identifying bibliographic entities and provides a conceptual model of works, expressions, manifestations and items.
2. It describes attributes and relationships between these entities using the example of Newton's Principia.
3. FRBR is influential in cataloguing standards like RDA and the design of library discovery systems but has limitations around implementation and fitting non-text works.
This document discusses FRBR (Functional Requirements for Bibliographic Records) and how it relates to RDA (Resource Description and Access). It begins by outlining the goals of understanding the FRBR model of relationships between bibliographic entities and how RDA uses FRBR as the basis for new cataloging rules. It then explains the FRBR model which organizes creative works, expressions, manifestations and items into groups and describes their relationships. It contrasts FRBR with traditional cataloging models and discusses how RDA updates some AACR2 rules to better align with FRBR.
The document discusses linking library catalog data to linked open data using RDA, FRBR and URIs. It provides an example of linking a library catalog record for a play to external data about productions and performances of that play. Challenges include lack of common identifiers, implicit vs explicit links, and issues with rights and multimedia objects. Linked data could help enrich catalog records by adding external relationships but requires unique identifiers and a shift from text strings to URIs for entities and relationships.
RDA (Resource Description and Access) is a new standard for describing library resources, designed to replace AACR2. Library staff, including public services, systems personnel, and catalogers, may have heard mention of RDA but not know much about it or how it will change their daily work. You may have many questions. What is RDA? We'll give a very little bit of history and theoretical background. What is this going to mean for catalogers, ILS managers, and users in the near term? What are the future implications, or, why are we doing this? What are the juicy bits of controversy in cataloger-land? And finally, Do we HAVE to? We'll talk for a while, have some activities that get you thinking, and find out your thoughts on RDA.

This document summarizes a presentation on RDA (Resource Description and Access) and FRBR (Functional Requirements for Bibliographic Records). RDA is a new cataloging code being developed to replace AACR2. It is based on FRBR and FRAD models which conceptualize bibliographic entities and relationships. The presentation outlines the goals and major changes in RDA, including a principle-based approach, greater authority control focus, and online availability. Implementation plans target late 2009, though concerns remain about backwards compatibility and FRBR integration.
The document summarizes the FRBR (Functional Requirements for Bibliographic Records) model presented by Dr. Barbara B. Tillett. The FRBR model conceptualizes catalog records as entities and relationships between works, expressions, manifestations and items. It aims to improve user tasks like finding and identifying related resources by collocating different versions of works. The document outlines the FRBR entities and relationships and provides examples to illustrate how they can be applied in an "FRBR-ized" online catalog display.
FRBR, FRAD and RDA I don't speak cataloging why should I careDeann Trebbe
This document discusses FRBR, FRAD, and RDA. It begins with an overview of the acronyms: FRBR is the Functional Requirements for Bibliographic Records, a conceptual model; FRAD is the Functional Requirements for Authority Data, also a conceptual model; and RDA is Resource Description and Access. It then provides more details on FRBR and FRAD, including their purposes and entities. FRBR is based on user tasks of finding, identifying, selecting, and acquiring resources. FRAD similarly maps authority data to user tasks. The document concludes that FRBR and FRAD encourage new ways of looking at bibliographic and authority data, and that like libraries, they continue to evolve.
This document summarizes a presentation on the Functional Requirements for Bibliographic Records (FRBR). It introduces FRBR as a conceptual model developed by IFLA to define the functional requirements of bibliographic records based on user tasks and needs. The presentation covers the basic concepts in FRBR including entities, attributes, relationships, and the three main groups of entities. It also discusses the needs FRBR addresses, benefits it provides, and its role as the foundation for the new cataloging code RDA. The overall purpose of FRBR is to improve the user experience in bibliographic databases and catalogs.
RDA is a new cataloging standard designed to replace AACR2 and provide guidelines for describing digital resources. It is based on FRBR and FRAD which are models that organize information by user tasks and relationships between entities like works, expressions, manifestations and items. RDA aims to be more intuitive for users by providing more detailed descriptions of resources and is being tested by various libraries and organizations before its full implementation. However, some questions remain regarding its costs and benefits compared to AACR2.
FRBR stands for Functional Requirements for Bibliographic Records.
Functional Requirements for Bibliographic Records is a conceptual entity-relationship model developed by the International Federation of Library Associations and Institutions (IFLA).
A conceptual entity relationship model that relates user tasks of retrieval and access in online library catalogs and bibliographic databases from a user’s perspective.
A new conceptual model for bibliographic universe with a strong users focus .
The purpose of this entity relationship analysis was to discover the logical nature of bibliographic data in terms of entity, attributes and relationship.

The document discusses Resource Description and Access (RDA), a new cataloging standard intended to replace Anglo-American Cataloguing Rules (AACR). It examines RDA's goals of being less Anglo-centric, enabling data sharing, and solving problems like multiple versions, but notes concerns that RDA was not adequately tested and may not be compatible with existing metadata standards and library systems. It predicts RDA will not be widely adopted and AACR2 will continue to be used.
This is intended to be a two day workshop on RDA. This workshop will explore RDA with a specific focus on theories, practicalities, authority work and hands on cataloging. The workshop will take the student through understanding the theories behind RDA and then cataloging by RDA standards.
The document discusses relative clauses and pronouns. It provides examples of sentences using relative pronouns such as that, which, who, when, and where. It also discusses rules around using that versus which, and that versus who. Examples are provided to illustrate appropriate and incorrect usage of relative pronouns in different contexts.

From Record-Bound to Boundless: FRBR, Linked Data and New Possibilities for S...NASIG
As resources have become ever more complicated in a digital world, it is evident that cataloging practices and the metadata standards we use to guide these practices are becoming more constrained. Nowhere is this more apparent than with the cataloging of serial publications. For librarians, serial publications have been a constant challenge due to issues such as the multiple version problem, frequent changes in title or issuing body and complex publication histories. For users, serial publications are challenging due to the fact that a boundary has been established in the library profession where serial publications are described by librarians while the articles contained within those publications are handled by indexing and abstracting services. Although web-scale discovery systems have attempted to bridge the gap by providing a single point of discovery, user access is far from seamless. Recent changes within the library community can have a significant impact on serials cataloging and may help improve information retrieval for the end user. The Functional Requirements for Bibliographic Records (FRBR) holds great promise for alleviating some of the problems related to serials cataloging. While FRBR provides a useful mechanism for re-examining many of the problems with serials cataloging, the principles of Linked Data may further transform the way in which resources and the relationships between them are captured and presented to our users. By taking description out of our current record constraints, serials librarians will better be able to express how a particular journal has changed over time and the relationships between multiple versions of the same publication. The Linked Data model also opens up many opportunities for the provision of value-added content to bibliographic descriptions. Shifting description to a Linked Data model may not only help to alleviate many of the issues related to serials cataloging, it can also help users better understand and use bibliographic data effectively.

The document discusses using linked open data and linked data principles for libraries. It covers key concepts like URIs, RDF triples, ontologies and vocabularies. It then outlines options for libraries to both consume and publish linked data, such as enriching existing catalog data by linking to external sources, creating new information aggregates, and publishing library holdings and metadata as linked open data. Challenges include a lack of common identifiers, FRBRization of existing data, and the need for content curation and new technical systems to fully realize the benefits of linked open data for libraries.

This document provides instructions for a library workshop on researching sedimentary geology topics. It outlines 8 steps for students to follow, including understanding their research topic using reference sources, finding relevant books and journal articles, searching databases, and learning how to cite sources using the Harvard referencing style. Examples are given for citing both books and journal articles in-text and in a reference list. The workshop aims to equip students with the skills and resources needed to conduct effective research for their term essay assignment on a sedimentary depositional system.
The document discusses metadata, including how it is used in cultural heritage organizations and the different types of metadata. It talks about how metadata is stored and shared using databases, XML, and RDF. The presentation notes that metadata standards are evolving due to linked data technologies, which are connecting metadata in larger graphs. As a result, metadata is becoming less separated between organizations and more open and intelligent systems are needed to handle the growing scale and connections in metadata. Cultural heritage organizations need to rethink their workflows and business models in light of these changes.

This document provides an overview of wound healing, its functions, stages, mechanisms, factors affecting it, and complications.
A wound is a break in the integrity of the skin or tissues, which may be associated with disruption of the structure and function.
Healing is the body’s response to injury in an attempt to restore normal structure and functions.
Healing can occur in two ways: Regeneration and Repair
There are 4 phases of wound healing: hemostasis, inflammation, proliferation, and remodeling. This document also describes the mechanism of wound healing. Factors that affect healing include infection, uncontrolled diabetes, poor nutrition, age, anemia, the presence of foreign bodies, etc.
Complications of wound healing like infection, hyperpigmentation of scar, contractures, and keloid formation.

Expression entity problems
FRBR report, p. 19: “Strictly speaking, any
change in intellectual or artistic content
constitutes a change in expression. Thus, if a
text is revised or modified, the resulting
expression is considered to be a new
expression, no matter how minor the
modification may be.”
Some call for merging/removal of expression
entity, but MUCH resistance from FRBR folk

Cataloging
Non-MARC environments
Many already doing FRBR-like things
Tend to have lots of programming support
MARC environments
Need more innovation from ILS vendors
Catalogers used to looking at 1 record (maybe 2)
showing everything
Need to provide complex relationships when
necessary, hide when not
Legacy records
