Lima, Portuguese PowerPoint presentation

Filed under: Conferences — William Denton @ 7:16 am

This E-LIS page has the information about João Lima’s Portuguese presentation about FRBR: Introdução ao Modelo FRBR (Requisitos Funcionais para Registros Bibliográficos) (506 KB PowerPoint). There’s no date on it, but it was deposited in the e-prints repository on 24 July 2006. It looks like a general introduction to FRBR, and includes some screenshots from VTLS’s Virtua system. It also quotes Seymour Lubetzky: The catalogue has to tell you more than what you ask for.
