We follow the three-level entity hierarchy for the representation of artistic or creative endavour proposed in the [https://vocab.org/frbr/core FRBR ontology], widely used in libraries, which we map to the two-level hierarchy for the representation of LCR metadata proposed in [https://github.com/ld4lt/metashare/blob/dev/metashare.owl Metashare], from where we inherit the terminology, and the definitions. These hierarchy levels, expressed as classes, are the following:

The entity Schemata for LexBib LCR and LCR Distributions are aligned to those of the corresponding FRBR and Metashare classes (in other words, the LexBib class is a subclass of both). This has several implications:
The entity Schemata for LexMeta LCR and LCR Distributions are aligned to those of the corresponding FRBR and Metashare classes (in other words, the LexBib class is a subclass of both). This has several implications:
* Properties that describe LCR content are attached to items of class [[Item:Q4|LexicalConceptualResource]].
* Properties that describe LCR content are attached to items of class [[Item:Q4|LexicalConceptualResource]].
* Properties that describe the LCR distribution, e.g. a physical dictionay in book form, or an electronic dictionary in a dictionary web portal or as downloadable dataset, are attached to [[Item:Q24|LCR Distribution]] items.
* Properties that describe the LCR distribution, e.g. a physical dictionay in book form, or an electronic dictionary in a dictionary web portal or as downloadable dataset, are attached to [[Item:Q24|LCR Distribution]] items.

LexMeta provides categories for classifying dictionaries and other lexical resources, here called properties attached to LCR. Property ranges are defined as listed in the following table. Click on the class names to see the member terms in a hierarchical representation.

Manuscript, printed, and offline and online electronic dictionaries, as distributions are represented using the same set of properties as for LexBib metalexicographical articles. They can also be listed in [[LexBib Zotero]].
