Modeling augmentations

Modeling augmentations

• Maja Žumer
• University of Ljubljana

2
Examples of augmentations

• Text with illustrations (or illustrations with
  text)
• Text with foreword, notes
• Music and words
• Music and choreography
• Not the best term, because it implies that one
  content part is more important...

Delsey (1998)

• Document part
• Examples physically separate component of a
  multipart document, accompanying material, issue
  of a serial
• Content part
• Individual component of the intellectual or
  artistic content of document or document part
  (article in a serial, chapter/section/part,
  illustration for a text, sound aspect of a
  film...)

Our augmentation

• Content part
• segmental (foreword and text)
• systemic (words and music)
• Dependent (choreography)
• Independent (foreword)

5
FRBR and parts

• Whole/part relationship
• Work
• Expression
• Complement, supplement (work-to-work,
  expression-to-expression of different works,
  expression-to-work)

6
Categories of parts in FRBR

• Dependent
• Component parts of a work that are intended to be
  used in context of the larger work and depend on
  the context of the larger work for their meaning
• segmental (prefaces, chapters, sections, parts)
• systemic (illustrations)
• Independent
• They do not depend on the context provided by the
  the larger work for their meaning

7
Examples in FRBR

• Supplement (referential)
• index, concordance, teachers guide
• Complement (referential)
• libretto, choreography
• Whole/part
• illustration for a text

• Page 70
• There will often be no reason for a dependent
  part of a work to be separately identified or
  described in a bibliographic record. In certain
  instances ... it may be considered useful to
  identify and describe the component in its own
  right.

• Contents note

Issues

• Is there always the main work?
• Should segmental and systemic parts be modeled
  differently?
• Should dependent and independent parts be modeled
  differently?
• Should the model take into account the context in
  which the combination occured?

Most manifestations embody more than one
expression (work)

• For example
• text
• illustrations
• editors contribution
• layout design
• cover design
• ...

11
Possibilities

• Choose the main work and treat as a new
  expression of this work
• Treat as embodiment of several expressions

Proposal

• Embodiment of several expressions
• Treat as composite work if necessary
• Record all expressions (works) important for the
  intended user
