Abstract

SUMMARY This paper presents the IFPA software, an application for the UNESCO ISIS retrieval software, developed to manage the data and the relationships theorised in the IFLA FRBR conceptual model. The application interfaces–a DOS, a Microsoft Windows, and a Web-based one–are presented through their functionalities. A detailed database structure is explained, as well as the way the relationships between the entities are managed in the ISIS underlying environment, not originally designed for this task. The author stresses, finally, how this tool will be available free of charge to everyone who wants to experiment with this new cataloging approach.
