چکیده

We report findings from experiments with IFLA’s Functional Requirements for Bibliographic Records (FRBR) as applied to the domain of science fiction (Abbott’s Flatland) in the OCLC’s WorldCat. The objective is to gauge the characteristics of bibliographic entities under study, to examine the types of relationships these entities exhibit, and to collocate bibliographic entities according to the FRBR group 1 hierarchy of entities. The study’s findings may shed some light on a navigational capability in global digital libraries by assembling items into interrelated clusters and displaying them according to the FRBR model in order to make it easier for the user to find desired bibliographic entities.
