IFLA LRM Relationship Overview

Table below summarizes in a concise tabular form the relationships defined in the model. All relationships are refinements of the top-level relationship (LRM-R1), which is given in the first row of the first column. All the other relationships defined in the model are at the same level and are given in the second column. In an expansion of the model, additional second level relationships, as well as relationships at still lower hierarchy levels, may be defined. To make the listing more compact, only the relationship names are given, the inverse names are omitted.
