FRBR From 1992-1995 the IFLA Study Group on Functional

Requirements for Bibliographic Records (FRBR) developed an entity-relationship model as a generalized view of the bibliographic universe.

It includes a description of the conceptual model (the entities, relationships, and attributes or metadata), a proposed national level bibliographic record for all types of materials, and user tasks associated with the bibliographic resources described in catalogs, bibliographies, and other bibliographic tools.
