Abstract
The paper presents preliminary results on a study testing user interactions with five prototype systems, including four different visualizations of FRBR-based bibliographic information and one more typical bibliographic information system. Performance and perceptions findings using the same tasks across the different visualizations are reported with a discussion on the implications for the design of future bibliographic information interfaces.
