FictionFinder - OCLC. FictionFinder is a FRBR-based prototype that provides access to over 2.9 million bibliographic records for fiction books, eBooks, and audio materials described in OCLC WorldCat. Overview This project applies principles of the FRBR model to aggregate bibliographic information above the manifestation level. Records are clustered into works using the OCLC FRBR Work-Set Algorithm. The algorithm collects bibliographic records into groups based on author and title information from bibliographic and authority records. Author names and titles are normalized to construct a key. All records with the same key are grouped together in a work set. Data elements from records within a given work set are aggregated at the work level. Prototype Records in FictionFinder are extensively indexed.
Search results are organized by works and ranked by holdings making results sets briefer and easier to navigate. Background. Data.bnf.fr. Boreal - Université catholique de Louvain.
