Fernanda Moreno thesis now available

Filed under: Papers — William Denton @ 7:48 am

If you cast your minds back to 17 May, you’ll remember I mentioned Fernanda Moreno wrote a master’s thesis about FRBR (in Portuguese). It’s now available online: you can read about it on E-LIS or download it directly: Requisitos Funcionais para Registros Bibliográficos - FRBR: um estudo no catálogo da Rede Bibliodata (1.4 MB PDF). Even if you don’t know Portuguese (and I don’t), if you read English or a Romance language you’ll be able to get the gist of things.
