“…It is likely that some translations were missed since the use of uniform title is optional (rule 25.1., AACR2R). Both Vellucci (1995) and Carlyle (1997) offer an in-depth discussion of the classificatory function of uniform titles.…”

Center's (OCLC) WorldCat. The goal of the study is to gauge the characteristics of bibliographic entities under study, to examine types of relationships these entities exhibit, and to collocate bibliographic entities according to the FRBR group 1 hierarchy of entities identified as works, expressions, manifestations, and items. The study's findings show that by assembling bibliographic records into interrelated clusters and displaying these according to the FRBR entity-relationship model, a new navigational capability in networked digital libraries can be developed.

“…Organizing retrieved record sets into intelligible categories may communicate results more quickly and effectively than currently used long lists of brief records summaries (Carlyle & Summerlin, ). Several authors have therefore suggested that the development of bibliographic families would enhance users' ability to navigate the bibliographic universe (Smiraglia & Leazer, ), increase users' understanding of the nature of the items retrieved and shorten long displays (Carlyle, ), as well as create more knowledge‐oriented catalogs (Fattahi, ).…”

Since their beginnings, bibliographic information systems have been displaying results in the form of long, textual lists. With the development of new data models and computer technologies, the need for new approaches to present and interact with bibliographic data has slowly been maturing. To investigate how this could be accomplished, a prototype system, FrbrVis1, was designed to present work families within a bibliographic information system using information visualization. This paper reports on two user studies, a controlled and an observational experiment, that have been carried out to assess the Functional Requirements for Bibliographic Records (FRBR)‐based against an existing system as well as to test four different hierarchical visual layouts. The results clearly show that FrbrVis offers better performance and user experience compared to the baseline system. The differences between the four hierarchical visualizations (Indented tree, Radial tree, Circlepack, and Sunburst) were, on the other hand, not as pronounced, but the Indented tree and Sunburst design proved to be the most successful, both in performance as well as user perception. The paper therefore not only evaluates the application of a visual presentation of bibliographic work families, but also provides valuable results regarding the performance and user acceptance of individual hierarchical visualization techniques.

“…Carlyle is a wellrespected scholar and educator whose paper "Fulfilling the Second Objective in the Online Catalog: Schemes for Organizing Author and Work Records Into Usable Displays" won the 1998 Jesse H. Shera Award for Distinguished Published Research, given by the Library Research Round Table of the American Library Association. 3 She is also the recipient of the 2000 OCLC/ALISE Research Paper Award for "Developing Organized Information Displays for Voluminous Works: A Study of User Clustering Behavior." 4 Carlyle's primary research areas are the evaluation and use of online catalogs, and foundations of descriptive cataloging.…”
