  • This paper is presented as a case study which describes the interactions between several communities with a common interest in developing standards related to bibliographic information retrieval. These communities are: library community with the new Anglo-American cataloguing rules RDA: Resource Description and Access based on IFLA’s FRBR and FRAD models, publishing community with ONIX, and Dublin Core communities. Such interactions have mainly taken the form of a meeting followed by a programme of substantive work mutually agreed and carried out as a collaborative venture between technical representatives of those communities. The case study is therefore presented in the chronological order of those meetings.
