Mapping ISBD Elements to FRBR Entity Attributes and Relationships

Developed by the ISBD Review Group, this mapping clarifies the relationship between the specialised ISBDs (before consolidation) and the FRBR conceptual model ,by mapping each of the elements specified in the ISBDs to its corresponding entity attribute or relationship as defined in FRBR. The mapping covers all elements specified in the outlines in the latest approved editions of the ISBDs as of July 2004. The elements analyzed comprise those listed in the outline of the ISBD(G) for areas 1, 2, 4, 5, 6, and 8, as well as elements specified for area 3 (the material or type of resource specific area) in the current editions of ISBD(CM), ISBD(CR), ISBD(ER), and ISBD(PM). The elements analyzed in area 7 (the note area) cover specific types of notes identified in the individual ISBDs.
