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.
An overview of FRBR focused on the WEMI model, User Tasks, and cataloging as service. Also touches on the new Library Reference Model, LRM and its impact on FRBR.
1) To understand the underlying structure of Time Series represented by sequence of observations by breaking it down to its components.
2) To fit a mathematical model and proceed to forecast the future.

Presented at the seminar Libraries and the Semantic Web: the role of International Standard Bibliographic Description (ISBD), National Library of Scotland, Edinburgh, 25 Feb 2011
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.

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 Preparation of Academic Library Administrators (Prezi import)Dr. Starr Hoffman
(Presentation based on my 2012 dissertation.)
The purpose of this quantitative study was to determine the preparation methods experienced by academic library deans, and which methods they perceived to be most valuable. Rosser, Johnsrud, and Heck defined the theoretical constructs of effective academic leadership upon which this study is based. The instrument (a modified version of Greicar’s Professional Preparation of Academic Deans Questionnaire) was administered online. The population was the chief administrators of academic libraries in the United States; there were 749 usable responses for a 30.4% response rate. Respondents were primarily female (61.7%), White non-Hispanic (90.0%), and born in the United States (95.7%), with a mean age of 56.4 (5.9% < 40, 11.0% > 65). The largest minority group was Black, non-Hispanic (3.9%). Many respondents held multiple advanced degrees; 90.0% held a MLS, 45.8% held a subject masters, and 18.8% held a doctorate.
The instrument measured academic library deans’ perceived value of various preparatory methods (formal and informal mentoring, on the job training, conferences or seminars, advanced degrees beyond the MLS, and training programs). The methods were tested for perceived effectiveness with Rosser, Johnsrud, and Heck’s seven theoretical constructs of academic leadership.
Advice on how to become professionally involved, and/or make the most of your network. Particularly relevant for new librarians, new academics, or those seeking to expand their professional network.

A Strategic Approach: GenAI in EducationPeter Windle
Artificial Intelligence (AI) technologies such as Generative AI, Image Generators and Large Language Models have had a dramatic impact on teaching, learning and assessment over the past 18 months. The most immediate threat AI posed was to Academic Integrity with Higher Education Institutes (HEIs) focusing their efforts on combating the use of GenAI in assessment. Guidelines were developed for staff and students, policies put in place too. Innovative educators have forged paths in the use of Generative AI for teaching, learning and assessments leading to pockets of transformation springing up across HEIs, often with little or no top-down guidance, support or direction.
This Gasta posits a strategic approach to integrating AI into HEIs to prepare staff, students and the curriculum for an evolving world and workplace. We will highlight the advantages of working with these technologies beyond the realm of teaching, learning and assessment by considering prompt engineering skills, industry impact, curriculum changes, and the need for staff upskilling. In contrast, not engaging strategically with Generative AI poses risks, including falling behind peers, missed opportunities and failing to ensure our graduates remain employable. The rapid evolution of AI technologies necessitates a proactive and strategic approach if we are to remain relevant.

June 3, 2024 Anti-Semitism Letter Sent to MIT President Kornbluth and MIT Cor...Levi Shapiro
Letter from the Congress of the United States regarding Anti-Semitism sent June 3rd to MIT President Sally Kornbluth, MIT Corp Chair, Mark Gorenberg
Dear Dr. Kornbluth and Mr. Gorenberg,
The US House of Representatives is deeply concerned by ongoing and pervasive acts of antisemitic
harassment and intimidation at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT). Failing to act decisively to ensure a safe learning environment for all students would be a grave dereliction of your responsibilities as President of MIT and Chair of the MIT Corporation.
This Congress will not stand idly by and allow an environment hostile to Jewish students to persist. The House believes that your institution is in violation of Title VI of the Civil Rights Act, and the inability or
unwillingness to rectify this violation through action requires accountability.
Postsecondary education is a unique opportunity for students to learn and have their ideas and beliefs challenged. However, universities receiving hundreds of millions of federal funds annually have denied
students that opportunity and have been hijacked to become venues for the promotion of terrorism, antisemitic harassment and intimidation, unlawful encampments, and in some cases, assaults and riots.
The House of Representatives will not countenance the use of federal funds to indoctrinate students into hateful, antisemitic, anti-American supporters of terrorism. Investigations into campus antisemitism by the Committee on Education and the Workforce and the Committee on Ways and Means have been expanded into a Congress-wide probe across all relevant jurisdictions to address this national crisis. The undersigned Committees will conduct oversight into the use of federal funds at MIT and its learning environment under authorities granted to each Committee.
• The Committee on Education and the Workforce has been investigating your institution since December 7, 2023. The Committee has broad jurisdiction over postsecondary education, including its compliance with Title VI of the Civil Rights Act, campus safety concerns over disruptions to the learning environment, and the awarding of federal student aid under the Higher Education Act.
• The Committee on Oversight and Accountability is investigating the sources of funding and other support flowing to groups espousing pro-Hamas propaganda and engaged in antisemitic harassment and intimidation of students. The Committee on Oversight and Accountability is the principal oversight committee of the US House of Representatives and has broad authority to investigate “any matter” at “any time” under House Rule X.
• The Committee on Ways and Means has been investigating several universities since November 15, 2023, when the Committee held a hearing entitled From Ivory Towers to Dark Corners: Investigating the Nexus Between Antisemitism, Tax-Exempt Universities, and Terror Financing. The Committee followed the hearing with letters to those institutions on January 10, 202

place, and/or any Group 1 or Group 2 entity,
Examples:
The French Revolution
the event that is the subject of the musical Les Miz
Jane Austen
an author of books (Group 2) who is the subject of the
movie Becoming Jane
12. FRBR Compared to Other Models
One-entity model (an inventory)
Each individual copy (or item) has its own record
Two-entity model (currently common)
Catalog records represent editions (FRBR manifestations) that may have multiple
copies (items)
Current catalog records are often at this level, with holdings information for each
item (number of copies, call numbers)
Three-entity model
Catalog that uses consistent uniform titles
Multiple expressions are not collocated
Four-entity model (FRBR)
Works/expressions are collocated
Long results lists are compacted
Easier for user who only cares about the work (i.e., “I want to read Jane Austen’s
Emma, I don’t care what edition”) to quickly find all available items of that work
Easier for user to find related works (i.e., movies adapted from books)
V/FRBR test catalog: Scherzo: http://www.dlib.indiana.edu/projects/vfrbr/
Example: search for work “Moonlight Sonata”
Previous Indiana catalog: list of over 100 results, displayed in reverse chronological
order, included unrelated books
13. So… What about RDA?
RDA started as AACR3 (new cataloging rules) in
2004/2005
Renamed to indicate a break from the AACR
tradition
Based on FRBR model of bibliographic relationships
14. Changes in RDA from AACR2 (Benefits)
Most changes (AACR2 to RDA) implemented with batch
modifications
Some require manual updates
RDA organized according to entities (FRBR’s 3 groups) rather
than format (AACR2)
Move away from GMD (general material designation)
Catalog format separately from content
More flexibility, create records for new formats
RDA better handles Group 2 entities (responsible
persons/corporate bodies)
Account for creators/contributors other than “authors”
AACR2/MARC 245 statement of responsibility not explicit
about responsibility (RDA is)
Move away from “Rule of Three” (multiple authors)
15. AACR2 to RDA Example
Example: book titled, Managing Bird Damage to Fruit and Other Horticultural Crops, coauthored by John
Tracy, Mary Bomford, Quentin Hart, Glen Saunders, and Ron Sinclair. (Example created by Adam Schiff at the
University of Washington Libraries: http://rdabasics.com/2012/09/10/specific-changes-from-aacr2-to-rda/)
AACR2 would code the book thusly in MARC:
245 00 $a Managing bird damage to fruit and other
horticultural crops / John Tracey … [et al.].
700 1_ $a Tracey, John Paul.
RDA codes the book in MARC this way:
100 1_ $a Tracey, John Paul, $e author.
245 10 $a Managing bird damage to fruit and other
horticultural crops / John Tracey, Mary Bomford, Quentin
Hart, Glen Saunders, Ron Sinclair.
700 1_ $a Bomford, Mary, $e author.
700 1_ $a Hart, Quentin, $e author.
700 1_ $a Saunders, Glen, $e author.
700 1_ $a Sinclair, Ron, $e author.
16. Takeaways for FRBR & RDA
FRBR is about relationships between entities
RDA is a new catalog code (rules) based on the FRBR model
of entities & relationships
There is controversy over RDA (too much change, not
enough change, just enough)
Many (not all) libraries are gradually adopting RDA in their
cataloging
For now, MARC remains the record format/encoding
standard
As with AACR2 or metadata description rules, the basic
principles of info org. remain the same:
“Say what you see” – describe the info object
Think about your collection’s users:
How are they likely to search for this object?
How can you make this object easy to discover?
Editor's Notes
Bibliographic record = record with descriptive information about a work (information object) that it represents
Catalog = a group of records, a list of objects in a collection
Model = determines how records are organized and created in a catalog (FRBR)
Cataloging codes = rules for creating catalog records (AACR2, RDA)
Structure = rules that help determine the order of elements & punctuation/spacing in a record (ISBD, XML)
Format = format in which a record is created and/or encoded (MARC, Dublin Core)
Subject heading = terms from a topical controlled vocabulary that describe the content of a work (LCSH, Sears, AAT)
Authority control = term from a controlled vocabulary chosen to uniquely identify an author, corporation, book title, or series (so that all records for one author can be accessed easily)
Classification scheme = assigns a unique descriptor to a work (usually based on subject), often used to indicate a work’s physical location (LC, Dewey)
Find (a specific work, works by a certain author, or on a certain topic)
Identify (find a specific edition of a work)
Select (evaluate work to determine if it meets the user need)
Obtain/Access (find the object on the shelf)
List (inventory all objects in the library)
Group 1: products of intellectual/artistic endeavor:
Work: a distinct intellectual or artistic creation
Expression: the realization of a work
Manifestation: the physical embodiment of an expression of a work
Item: a specific, single copy of a manifestation
Group 1: products of intellectual/artistic endeavor.
Work:
One work: Jane Austen’s Emma
A distinct, new work (derivative work): Emma, the 1997 movie adaptation starring Gwyneth Paltrow
Expression: (of Jane Austen’s Emma)
The book’s first edition, printed in 1815
A reprinted edition from 1972 with an introduction by Ronald Blythe
A 2007 audiobook read by Belinda Lang
Manifestation:
The 2007 audiobook as a mp3 file
The 2007 audiobook as a CD
Item:
a specific copy of the 2007 audiobook CD of Emma at the 58th Street NYPL branch, call number: CD FIC A
a specific copy of the 2007 CD audiobook that I own
Group 2: persons (or corporate bodies) responsible for the intellectual/artistic content, physical production and dissemination, or custodianship of a work.
Examples:
Harper Collins, the publisher of a work
Jane Austen, the author of a work
Left: Group 2 entities (persons, corporate bodies)
Middle: relationships between entities
Right: Group 1 entities
Group 3: subjects of an intellectual/artistic endeavor—may be a concept, object, event, place, and/or any Group 1 or Group 2 entity, Examples:
The French Revolution: the event that is the subject of the musical Les Miz
Jane Austen: an author of books (Group 2) who is also the subject of the movie Becoming Jane
Rule of Three from AACR2:
21.6C2If responsibility is shared among more than three persons or corporate bodies and principal responsibility is not attributed to any one, two, or three, enter under title. Make an added entry under the heading for the first person or corporate body named.
Attempt for most changes from AACR2 to RDA to be implemented on existing records with batch modifications
Some require manual updates
AACR2 was organized according to format; RDA organized according to entities (FRBR’s 3 groups)
Move away from GMD (general material designation): instead, catalog format separately from content
Provides more flexibility than AACR2, better able to create records for new formats
RDA better handles Group 2 entities (responsible persons/corporate bodies)
Can better account for creators/contributors other than traditional “authors”
AACR2/MARC old statement of responsibility in 245 tag not explicit about what that “responsibility” was—RDA makes this explicit
Move away from “Rule of Three”
Note that not only does this make more authors searchable for this book, it also explicitly states what their responsibility is
