  7. FRBR model (1998) - the short versionER : Entities, attributes, Relations • entities: of which there are ten, divided in three groups: • Group 1: works, expressions of the works, manifestations of the expression (documents), and items (copies) of the manifestations. Works and expressions are abstract. Manifestations and items relate to physical publications. • Group 2: responsibility entities - persons and corporate bodies. • Group 3: subject entities - concepts, places, events and objects. The other entities might also appear as subject entities. • attributes: the entities are described through their attributes. Some examples: a person has a name and birth date; a work has a title; a manifestation has a date of publication and an identification number (e.g. ISBN); an item (copy) has a call number. • relations: are defined as links or references between the entities. A work is created by a person. It is a relation between the work and the author of the work. Some other relations: a work is realized through one or more expressions; an expression is embodied in one or more manifestations; a manifestation is exemplified by one or more items.
