Users’ view toward the bibliographic family and related works is a matter of importance yet it is not well treated among different FRBRizing studies. Knowing the users’ terminology and the information elements in a bibliographic record they consume, can be of help in implementing FRBR in OPACs. This paper aims at studying users’ views toward the bibliographic family of the Epic of Kings (Shahnameh) by Ferdowsi as a case. Through this study, based on a mixed method, 40 bibliographic cards were distributed among 30 highly specialized researchers in the field and they sorted the card out in to 11 groups. Based on the names they attributed to each group, 11 hierarchical structures were accumulated and a bibliographic tree was formed based on the users’ view towards the bibliographic family and the FRBR model.
