Purpose

This paper focuses on the way users navigate bibliographic families not only when a user has no specific document in mind but also when he/she has a specific predefined need in mind.

Design/methodology/approach

To this end, the Epic of Kings was selected as a test-bed for the study and both situations were studied based on International Federation of Library Associations and Institutions-Library Reference Model (IFLA-LRM), but the potential users (participants of this study) were not directly exposed to the entities of the model. Card sorting, interview and distributing questionnaire constituted the data-gathering process.

Findings

Almost all of the participants in this study, when they had no specific resource in mind, generated a top-down view of the family, and in this view, all of them disregarded the item entity and lots of them disregarded the manifestations also. Yet on the other side, when they were asked to assume themselves in certain situations (in need of a specific work with a predefined expression and format), they viewed the bibliographic family from a bottom-up approach.

Originality/value

Most of the studies in this area regard the navigation process of users as a top-down approach and the Functional Requirements for Bibliographic Records (FRBR) family as a model suitable for hierarchical top-down visualization of bibliographic families. Yet this study poses the bottom-up approach of users regarding the family.

从 IFLA-LRM 的角度用户对导航书目族的看法

目的

本文重点关注用户浏览书目系列的方式，不仅在用户没有考虑特定文档的情况下，而且在他/她有特定的预定义需求时。

设计/方法/方法

为此，《王者史诗》被选为研究的试验台，两种情况均基于国际图书馆协会和机构联合会——图书馆参考模型（IFLA-LRM）进行研究，但潜在用户（本次研究的参与者）研究）没有直接暴露于模型的实体。卡片分类、访谈和分发问卷构成了数据收集过程。

发现

几乎所有参与这项研究的参与者，在他们没有考虑特定资源的情况下，都会产生自上而下的家庭视图，在这种视图中，他们都忽略了项目实体，许多人也忽略了表现形式。然而另一方面，当他们被要求在某些情况下假设自己（需要具有预定义表达和格式的特定作品）时，他们从自下而上的方法查看书目系列。

原创性/价值

该领域的大多数研究将用户的导航过程视为自上而下的方法，将书目记录（FRBR）族的功能需求视为适合书目族分层自上而下可视化的模型。然而，这项研究提出了用户关于家庭的自下而上的方法。
