• Current Virtua Release is Release 48

• First FRBR customer (UCL) was in 2003

with Release 41

• Important Split for UsersChoose to implement FRBR

Choose to ignore FRBR

Have a mixed catalog with FRBR records and non-FRBR

records

MARC based system

Mapping from regular cataloging to

FRBR

One record to three linked records

Work, Expression, Manifestation

Initial mapping done independently by LC

(Tom Delsey) and by VTLS (John Espley) – there

was little difference

Page 4: Differentiating Libraries through Enriched User Searching: FRBR Implementation in Virtua John Espley, Director for Design, VTLS Inc. Back to Basics – and

Design Considerations in FRBR

 

Design is a matter of choices; Good design is a matter of good choices

Five key questions

Store FRBR records?

Have a pure or mixed FRBRized catalog?

What tools are needed to support cataloging?

How to display FRBR records?

What features would users like?

Page 5: Differentiating Libraries through Enriched User Searching: FRBR Implementation in Virtua John Espley, Director for Design, VTLS Inc. Back to Basics – and

Design Considerations in FRBR

Records are cataloged once assessed many

times; FRBRizing at access was not optimal

Collocation was easier for stored FRBR records

Validations checks for works, expressions and

manifestations was cleaner for stored records

Cataloging was simpler and easily understood

Store FRBR Records (or FRBRize at display) ?

Page 6: Differentiating Libraries through Enriched User Searching: FRBR Implementation in Virtua John Espley, Director for Design, VTLS Inc. Back to Basics – and

Design Considerations in FRBR

Studies at VTLS and OCLC showed that about

18% of catalog records would gain by

FRBRizing

Pure catalogs would be easier to display but

would require more effort to convert

Mixed catalogs would take less overhead and

provide for gradual (over time) implementation

Mixed catalogs would provide for selective

FRBRization if necessary

Have a Pure or Mixed FRBRized Catalog?

Page 7: Differentiating Libraries through Enriched User Searching: FRBR Implementation in Virtua John Espley, Director for Design, VTLS Inc. Back to Basics – and

Design Considerations in FRBR

FRBRize button – converts any record to FRBR

Automatic linking between W-E-M records

Context sensitive validation for W-E-M records

Copying “whole” FRBR tree from catalog to catalog

Analyze catalog for FRBR candidates

Batch FRBRize the whole catalog (as in LC music)

UnFRBRize records for distribution & error correction

What Tools are Needed to Support Cataloging?

Page 8: Differentiating Libraries through Enriched User Searching: FRBR Implementation in Virtua John Espley, Director for Design, VTLS Inc. Back to Basics – and

Design Considerations in FRBR

FRBR expandable tree structure

Use of Icons

How to Display FRBR Records?

Page 9: Differentiating Libraries through Enriched User Searching: FRBR Implementation in Virtua John Espley, Director for Design, VTLS Inc. Back to Basics – and

Design Considerations in FRBR

Record sensitive displays – standard

records display different form FRBR

display

Collocation

Multilingual access based on FRBR data

Navigation – hence reverse tree

Circulation holds at W-E-M levels

What Features Would Users Like?

Page 10: Differentiating Libraries through Enriched User Searching: FRBR Implementation in Virtua John Espley, Director for Design, VTLS Inc. Back to Basics – and

VTLS Implementation

First FRBR customer was UCL in 2003

VTLS continues to create examples to

demonstrate the use of FRBR in library catalogs

Links to 12 examples on following slide

VTLS FRBR Features

Single database can have FRBR and non-FRBR records

System is “aware” of record type and changes displays as needed

Display of FRBR records are in tree structure

Local level fields have values of W, E, and M to indicate type of FRBR record

001 and 004 used as linking tags

A Super (or Supra) Work is a record that

has other works (sub works) related to it

For example, the novel Beau Geste by P. C. Wren is

one FRBR Work, and the several movies that have

been created from the book are also separate FRBR

Works. The Super work is an artificial creation that

links all these related works together

FRBR Circulation Requests

Page 41: Differentiating Libraries through Enriched User Searching: FRBR Implementation in Virtua John Espley, Director for Design, VTLS Inc. Back to Basics – and

With a traditional system when you had multiple editions of a particular title (Work) you had to place individual requests on each edition (Manifestation).

With a FRBR system, you only have to place a request at the Work or Expression level, and ANY item of ANY Manifestation will satisfy the request.

Questions/Concerns

Linking fields

Need clearer, fuller definitions of WEM

Need to look at MARC tag mappings

Rules of Super Works

Can FRBR work with CR?

For Librarians

CollocationBetter organization to catalog

Easier cataloging

Reduction in cataloging loadWork only cataloged once for all expressions under it

Expression only cataloged once for all manifestations under it

Item cataloging (already simple) remains the same

FRBR Benefits

Page 79: Differentiating Libraries through Enriched User Searching: FRBR Implementation in Virtua John Espley, Director for Design, VTLS Inc. Back to Basics – and

FRBR Benefits

Greater Benefits For Users

Collocation

Easier to find information

Single search retrieves all related materials even if

cataloged in different languages or different subject

headings

Easier to see the different expressions of a single

work

Gives a better global picture

Easier to find all manifestations

Page 80: Differentiating Libraries through Enriched User Searching: FRBR Implementation in Virtua John Espley, Director for Design, VTLS Inc. Back to Basics – and

Place holds at “Work” or “Expression” level

rather than only at manifestation level

Better understanding of relationships

between related works or expressions

FRBR Benefits

Virtua FRBR at UCL

Universite Catholique De Louvain (UCL)

has been a Virtua FRBR customer since

December of 2003

UCL moved to a consortium

environment in April of 2006

Page 82: Differentiating Libraries through Enriched User Searching: FRBR Implementation in Virtua John Espley, Director for Design, VTLS Inc. Back to Basics – and

UCL feedback on FRBR

• What UCL “likes” about FRBR “For the first time we have the ability for a ‘global’ representation of an ‘intellectual’ or ‘artistic’ universe” (English translation of a thought in French) “Collocation is tremendous” “Visualization of the content by the end user” “Accessibility to ‘big’ works like ‘Bible’”

“Very interesting for works of philosophers, great writers, and so on”

“Ability to extract FRBR records in a non FRBR format … for exchange of data” “Structural relationships from work to work”

Page 83: Differentiating Libraries through Enriched User Searching: FRBR Implementation in Virtua John Espley, Director for Design, VTLS Inc. Back to Basics – and

UCL feedback on FRBR

• What UCL “doesn’t like” so much “Difficulty” in getting precise information concerning different electronic ‘format’

“This is linked to the fact that Virtua/FRBR is MARC based and must live with the limitations of MARC”

“No way, at present, to identify a FRBR record in the index entries at the point of display”

VTLS comment : We think that this can be fixed.

Page 84: Differentiating Libraries through Enriched User Searching: FRBR Implementation in Virtua John Espley, Director for Design, VTLS Inc. Back to Basics – and

Advantages of FRBR (for UCL)

• FRBR is opening the road to “New methods for cataloging” “Analyzing deeply notion of ‘seriality’ and dynamic structure of electronic resources” “New model for authority data” “New model for subject authorities, thesauri, subject classification (facets)”

Page 85: Differentiating Libraries through Enriched User Searching: FRBR Implementation in Virtua John Espley, Director for Design, VTLS Inc. Back to Basics – and

Conclusion – Mood at UCL?

Overall : Quite happy with FRBR implementation

After three full years of experience they will never return to the old catalog

All new institutions joining the consortium are required to embrace the FRBR implementation – so there is no further debate about a mixed environement.

Read FRBR documentation

Study FRBR implementations to see benefits for

library

If there is interest, start a FRBR program

Have VTLS run “Virtua FRBR Analysis Program” to determine what percentage of database records are good FRBR candidates

General results: 5-18 % range
