This class and its sub-classes define active participants of the process of creation and dissemination of the bibliographic resources. The most obvious examples are authors, but it includes also publishers and other contributors.

The participants can be people, organizations, or even software services (mainly used for new digital resources). This specification does not provide any unique identifiers for these providers (but does not preclude having such identifiers as dynamic properties).
