Do WorldCat.org search results apply the FRBR concept?
Applies to
- WorldCat.org
Answer
Yes. WorldCat records in the WorldCat.org search results have had a set of FRBR algorithm applied, so multiple versions of a work (e.g. different editions and formats) are rolled up under a single record. Users can click the View all editions and formats link to see other formats and versions of a work in WorldCat results. The FRBR algorithms are constantly improving to ensure the appropriate items are clustered together as works.
