FRBRrajapinnat

FRBRrajapinnat refers to the Finnish implementation or interpretation of the Functional Requirements for Bibliographic Records (FRBR) model within the context of library cataloging. FRBR is an conceptual model that aims to group bibliographic records for different manifestations of the same work. Instead of treating each book, ebook, or audio version as a separate entity, FRBR seeks to link them under a common "work" entity. This allows users to more easily discover different formats of the same content.

In Finland, the adoption and adaptation of FRBR principles have influenced how national bibliographic data is structured and presented. FRBRrajapinnat likely denotes the specific interfaces, data structures, or application programming interfaces (APIs) that expose bibliographic data according to FRBR principles in a Finnish library environment. These rajapinnat, or interfaces, would enable various library systems and applications to access and utilize this FRBR-organized data. The goal is to provide a more user-centric catalog experience, moving beyond the traditional item-based approach to a more work- and expression-oriented discovery process. This can lead to improved search results and a clearer understanding of the relationships between different editions and formats of a publication.
