FrbrVis: An Information Visualization Approach to Presenting FRBR Work Families

  • Conference paper

Part of the book series: Lecture Notes in Computer Science ((LNISA,volume 7489))

Abstract

Although FRBR is becoming an important player in the bibliographic world, we have not seen many discussions or examples of how FRBR-based entities or relationships could best be displayed, explored or interacted with within a user interface. The paper presents a FrbrVis prototype as one possible approach to presenting FRBR-based bibliographic data using hierarchical information visualization structures and looks into how FRBR concepts have been implemented into an interactive user interface display.
