서지관계모형을 위한 개념적 모델인 IFLA의 FRBR (Functional Requirements for Bibliographic Records)에 대한 대안적인 접근이 발표되어 왔지만, FRBR 모델의 내부적인 일관성에 대해서는 많은 연구가 진행되어 있지 않은 실정이다. 본 연구는 FRBR 객체-관계 (entity-relationship) 모델에서 객체들 (entities)간의 관계 (relationships) 에서 발생하는 상속 (inheritance) 속성과 관련된 모델의 내부적 모순점을 지적하며, 이러한 문제를 해결하기위해 FRBR 모델의 표현성 (expressiveness)을 강화하기 위한 여러 대안적인 방안을 논의한다.

Abstract

The Functional Requirements for Bibliographic Records (FRBR) is a “conceptual model of the bibliographic universe” developed by the International Federation of Library Associations and Institutions (IFLA). Although some studies have suggested improvements in FRBR, and others explore alternative approaches, less attention has been paid to analyzing the internal coherence and consistency of the FRBR view as presented not only in the FRBR entity-relationship model and text of the FRBR document, but also in the related explanations and presentations of FRBR expositors. Our investigations have noted some interesting discrepancies between the general FRBR approach as presented in various expository documents and the specific account presented in the FRBR ER model and the FRBR document. We see that in one case these discrepancies can be easily remedied by adding additional modeling constructs and assertions, but in another case (the supposed “inheritance” of attributes across the Group 1 entities), there is a substantial difficulty in maintaining a consistent model. We discuss several alternative approaches to enhancing the expressiveness of FRBR in order remedy this problem. We note that none is entirely satisfactory.

검색 자원의 증가와 멀티 버전 자료의 증대에 따라 목록의 기능 중 집중기능이 필요하게 되면서, FRBR(Functional Requirements for Bibliographic Records)이 제안되었으나, 기존 서지데이터를 FRBR로 변환시 불완전함과 FRBR을 구체화할 목록규칙의 부재 등 현행 목록데이터를 FRBR로 완벽히 구현하기에는 한계가 있다. FRBR을 온라인목록에 적용하기 위해서는 방대한 양의 기존 MARC 데이터를 FRBR 알고리즘으로 처리해야 하지만, 기입력된 MARC 데이터와 현행 목록규칙은 FRBR을 완벽히 지원하지 않기 때문에 FRBR로의 변환이 용이하지 않다. 따라서 목록규칙과 MARC 기술에 대한 지침이 필요하다. 또한 국내에 FRBR 시스템을 구축하기 위해서는 FRBR 알고리즘을 실재 목록시스템에 적용하여 문제점과 해결책을 모색해야 한다. 이에 본고는 FRBR을 목록에 적용하기 위해서는 FRBR을 위한 목록규칙과 MARC 데이터 기술 방안이 선행되어야 한다는 전제하에 FRBR을 위한 저작 표현형 알고리즘을 개발하고, 실재 도서관 시스템에 적용하여 저작의 집중도와 적용시의 문제점을 분석하고, FRBR의 저작 집중성을 높이기 위한 방안으로 목록규칙과 MARC 입력방안을 제안하고 이를 검증하였다.

Abstract

The purposes of this study are to explore FRBR utilities such as work clustering and expression clustering and problems of application of the FRBR by developing work and expression clustering algorithm and implementing it into cataloging system, and to suggest new cataloging rules for FRBR and guideline of MARC description to improve FRBR work clustering. FRBR was suggested by necessitation of collocation function of bibliographic records according to increase of searching materials and multi-version materials, but FRBRization has some problems such as imperfect conversion of bibliographic records to FRBR records and inappropriateness of current cataloging rules for FRBR. Bibliographic records must be processed by FRBR algorithm to construct FRBRized system, but bibliographic records and current cataloging rules couldn't perfectly support FRBRization. Therefore cataloging rules and guidelines of MARC description for FRBR are needed. For constructing FRBRized cataloging system in Korea, it is needed to find problems and solution through FRBR practical application such as developing FRBR algorithm and applying it to cataloging records.

디지털 정보환경 속에서 동일한 내용이지만 형태와 표현 방식이 다른 저작들이 빈번하게 생성되어지자, IFLA는 다양한 매체, 응용 및 기능을 수용하고 이용자의 정보탐색 욕구를 충족시킬 수 있는 새로운 서지정보 기술 권고안인 FRBR(Functional Requirements for Bibliographic Records) 모형을 제안하였다. 이에 따라 여러 기관에서 이용자들이 보다 용이하게 원하는 정보를 탐색, 식별, 선정, 획득하고 또 항해할 수 있게 하는 FRBR 모형 기반의 서지정보시스템을 실험적으로 구현하고 있다. 본 연구는 앞으로 이러한 시스템이 본격적으로 개발될 때 도움이 될 수 있는 서지정보 인터페이스 개발방안을 제안하였다. 이를 위하여 먼저 새로운 검색 및 디스플레이 인터페이스를 선보이고 있는 FRBR 모형 기반 서지정보시스템의 전체적 특징을 살펴본 후, 각 시스템이 제공하는 탐색 인터페이스와 디스플레이 인터페이스를 각각 비교ㆍ분석하였다.

Abstract

New concept of bibliographic data and its scheme are needed to accommodate a change resulting from the emergence of new forms of electronic publishing, and the advent of networked access to information resources. FRBR model was developed for defining functions performed by the bibliographic data with respect to various media, various applications, and various user needs. Several institutions including OCLC and RLG or vendors have tried to implement the FRBR on OPAC systems. The purpose of this study is to propose the strategies for developing bibliographic interface based the FRBR model. This study is to review the representative FRBRized systems and compare the systems regarding on search interface and display interface.

Abstract

With the purpose of enriching existing catalogues with FRBR, which is the Functional Requirements for Bibliographic Records, in mind, this paper aims to evaluate the impact of bibliographic ontology on the overall system’s performance in the field of literature. In doing this, OCLC’s FictionFinder (http://fictionfinder.oclc.org) was selected and qualitatively evaluated. In this study 40 university seniors evaluated the following three aspects using the ‘transferring thoughts onto paper method’: 1) In which ways is this FRBR-aware bibliographical ontology helpful? 2) Are the things which are initially attempted to be helped being helped? 3) Would users seeking one work in particular also see all other related works? In conclusion, this study revealed that, as Cutter claimed in his 2nd rule of the library, collocations give added-value to the users and overall ontology provides better interface and usefulness. It also revealed that a system’s evaluation with qualitative methodology helped to build full pictures of the system and to grip the information needs of the users when the system is developed. Qualitative evaluations, therefore, could be used as indicators for the evaluation of any information retrieval systems.
