AbstractHistoryArchive Description

'In 1998, Functional Requirements for Bibliographic Records (FRBR) was a conceptual model promoted by the International Federation of Library Associations (IFLA) as being the recommended new advancement in cataloging. Functional Requirements for Bibliographic Records (FRBR): Hype or Cure-All? explores the theoretical issues, such as the concept of "works" and the bibliographic relationships of musical works, and also provides a unique survey of most of the systems that actually implement FRBR, such as the AustLit Gateway and WorldCat. This book describes the challenges that accompany implementation of FRBR, and how this abstract approach to cataloging can be a useful, practical tool to help improve library systems.' (Book jacket)

The AustLit Gateway and Scholarly Bibliography : A Specialist Implementation of the FRBR, Kerry Kilner , single work criticism
'This paper discusses how the AustLit: Australian Literature Gateway's interpretation, enhancement and implementation of the International Federation of Library Association's Functional Requirements for Bibliographic Records (FRBR Final Report 1998) model is meeting the needs of Australian literature scholars for accurate bibliographic representation of the histories of literary texts. It also explores how the AustLit Gateway's underpinning research principles, which are based on the tradition of scholarly enumerative and descriptive bibliography, with enhancements from analytical bibliography and literary biography, have impacted upon our implementation of the FRBR model. The major enhancement or alteration to the model is the use of enhanced manifestations, which allow the full representation of all agents' contributions to be shown in a highly granular format by enabling creation events to be incorporated at all levels of the Work, Expression and Manifestation nexus.'
