compatiblewiththe4-foldpathforidentifyingarelatedentitywithanunstructureddescription,structureddescription,identifieroraccesspoint,andURI.

ThepaperassumesthatRDAwillgenerallycomplywiththeIFLAbibliographicmodels,consolidatedasFRBR-LRM(LibraryReferenceModel).

TerminologyTheprimaryterminologyusedinthisdocumentisfromtheRDAToolkit.TheequivalentterminologyfromtheRDARegistryisgiveninparentheses.

RelationshipsinRDARDAprovidesguidanceandinstructionsforcreatingdescriptionsandrelationshipsforthingsof

interesttousersoflibraryandculturalheritageservices.Theunderlyingconceptualmodels

(FRBR,FRAD,FRSAD)specifytheentities(RDFclasses)thatfocusoncommonattributesand

relationshipssharedbytheindividualthingsbeingdescribed;thingscanbetangible(for

example,personsormanufactureditems)orintangible(forexample,intellectualorcreative

works).Aunifiedconceptualmodel,FRBRLibraryReferenceModel(LRM),isinthefinalstagesforreviewandapprovalduring2016-2017.

EntitiesTheentitiesusedinRDAare:

Work(W),Expression(E),Manifestation(M),Item(I),Person(P),Family(F),CorporateBody(C).

Place(Pl)wasaddedtotheRDARegistrytoenabletheadditionofRDAToolkitelementsfor

placetosupporttheAugust2016releaseofRDAToolkit.ItisotherwiseundevelopedintheToolkit.

ElementsRDAprovideselements(RDFproperties)forspecificattributesandrelationships.Eachelement
