Functional Requirements for Subject Authority Data (FRSAD): Draft Report

The IFLA Working Group on Functional Requirements for Subject Authority Records (FRSAR) was established in April 2005 by the Classification and Indexing Section.  A draft report was sent for worldwide review in the summer of 2009. The draft is available along with other background materials.

Terms of Reference

  • Build a conceptual model of Group 3 entities within the FRBR framework as they relate to the aboutness of works (Entities in Group 1 and Group 2 can be used as the subjects of works but further inclusion of them will depend on the outcomes of the work of the FRANAR Working Group),
  • provide a clearly defined, structured frame of reference for relating the data that are recorded in subject authority records to the needs of the users of those records, and
  • assist in an assessment of the potential for international sharing and use of subject authority data both within the library sector and beyond.
