Authority identifiers such as VIAF and a national library author ID enable precise disambiguation of an author's identity. A Scopus author ID indicates that at least some scholarly output attributed to that name has been indexed in an international abstracting and citation database. Collectively, these entries support discoverability, accurate citation, and aggregation of an author’s works by researchers, librarians, and indexing services. Even without itemized publications in the supplied material, the cross-referenced identifiers create a persistent scholarly footprint that can be followed to locate primary sources and bibliographic records elsewhere. The impact, therefore, is infrastructural: these records make it possible for others to find, verify, and evaluate his scholarly contributions in external catalogues and citation indexes. Without such identifiers, linking works reliably to this specific individual would be more difficult. ## Notable For - Being recorded as a computer scientist in the provided structured data. - VIAF identifier: 149420555 (authority file entry referenced 2020-06-05). - Scopus author ID: 36440978800 (referenced 2021-04-30). - National Library of the Czech Republic author identifier: ola2010585926 (referenced 2020-05-15). - Vedidk ID: 5571022 (API reference noted 2021-04-30). ## Body ### Personal data - Full name: Libor Dražan. - Given name: Libor. - Family name: Dražan. - Sex/gender: male. - Birth date: 6 July 1960. - Birth place: Strakonice. ### Occupational status - Occupation recorded: computer scientist. - Instance: human. ### Authority and bibliographic identifiers - VIAF ID: 149420555.
