    UNIMARC Bibliographic Format Manual 1.2.0
    (International Federation of Library Associations and Institutions (IFLA), 2025) Permanent UNIMARC Committee (PUC); Mazić, Gordana; Badovinac, Branka; Galvão, Rosa; Zhlobinskaya, Olga; Akbari-Daryan, Saeedeh; Aslanidi, Maria; Lecomte, Héloïse; Mimoso Correia, Miguel; Tfibel, Florence
    The UNIMARC bibliographic format is the backbone of a set of standards for the representation and exchange of different library data records: bibliographic, authorities, classification and holdings. Where applicable references are made to these formats but no details are given. For that, users of the bibliographic format are referred to the documentation for those formats. The UNIMARC Bibliographic format is designed to be a carrier for bibliographic information. It covers monographs, continuing resources, cartographic resources, music, sound recordings, graphics, projection and video materials, rare books and archival resources and electronic resources. This Manual is both a definitive statement of the bibliographic format and a guide to its use.

    IFLA 图书馆参考模型。书目信息的概念模型
    (International Federation of Library Associations and Institutions (IFLA), 2024) Riva, Pat; Le Boeuf, Patrick; Žumer, Maja; Zhao, Dandan; Gu, Ben
    IFLA Library Reference Model (LRM) is a high-level conceptual reference model developed within an entity-relationship modelling framework. It is the consolidation of the separately developed IFLA conceptual models: FRBR, FRAD, FRSAD. IFLA LRM was developed to resolve inconsistencies between the three separate models. Every user task, entity, attribute and relationship from the original three models was examined, definitions had to be revised, but also some remodelling was required in order to develop a meaningful consolidation. The result is a single, streamlined, and logically consistent model that covers all aspects of bibliographic data and that at the same time brings the modelling up-to-date with current conceptual modelling practices. IFLA LRM was designed to be used in linked data environments and to support and promote the use of bibliographic data in linked data environments.
