Riva, Doerr, Žumer: FRBRoo: Enabling a Common View of Information from Memory Institutions

Posted by: William Denton, 22 September 2009 7:37 am
Categories: FRBRoo

A paper given by Pat Riva, Martin Doerr and Maja Žumer at the 2008 IFLA conference in Quebec City was published this spring: FRBRoo: Enabling a Common View of Information from Memory Institutions (900 KB PDF) (International Cataloguing and Bibliographic Control 38:2, April/June 2009). The PDF is page images so I can’t copy in the abstract, but it’s just five pages and the title explains it. (More on FRBRoo is available online; it’s an object-oriented approach to FRBR.)
