The national standards are the latest revision of Anglo-American Cataloguing Rules, 2nd ed., commonly known as AACR2, as interpreted by the Library of Congress rule interpretations, and Descriptive Cataloging of Rare Materials (Books), commonly known as DCRM(B) . For pre-1800 single-sheet publications, the Rare Book Team will use DCRM(B), specifically rules 1G (title and statement of responsibility), 5B14 and 5D4 (physical description).

Interpreting MARC: Where’s the Bibliographic Data? By Jason Thomale Introduction The Machine Readable Cataloging (MARC) format was conceptualized in the early 1960s and first piloted in 1966 (Avram, 1975). It is now well over 40 years old. Considering just the advances in computer data representation that have happened since, today’s world is alien to the one in which MARC was conceived. In 1966, it would still be three years until Dr. Edgar F. Codd would publish his first paper describing a relational model for data as an IBM Research Report, and four years until he would revise the paper and publish it more widely in Communications for the ACM (Date, 1998); eight years until Donald Chamberlin and Raymond Boyce would first present their work on SEQUEL (SQL) (Chamberlin & Boyce, 1974); and ten years until Peter Chen would first propose the Entity Relationship model (Chen, 1976).

Richard M. Scholarly Communications - The Issues. Science. I arrived late to the JISC Libraries of the Future online video stream, so this may not be a full picture of the discussion, but what I heard was mainly the Scholarly Communication Problem. This problem is extremely well known and I have heard it talked about--forgive me--endlessly, without (m)any solutions proposed. It goes like this: Universities / research organisations pay researchers.Funders grant money to researchers.Universities / research organisations give money to libraries.
So far so good. Then a strange dance:researchers submit work to publishers who perform several functions: they assemble the various files together (text, charts, figures etc.)they select notable papersthey send them out for peer review and manage the review (e.g. ensuring comments are in on time)they edit the copy itself for clarity and do QAthey apply necessary metadata, get a DOI etc.they do layout on the copy so it looks nice They don't actually perform the peer review, this is done by the reseachers.

Institute Archives & Special Collections. Compact for OA Publishing Equity - Overview. In the open. A year after the MIT Libraries began implementing the faculty’s landmark open access policy, hundreds of scholarly articles are now freely available online — and the effort to democratize access to published research is gaining momentum inside the Institute and beyond. “It looks like the policy is working extremely well, and that we are on track,” reports Richard Holton, professor of philosophy and chair of the Faculty Committee on the Library System that has been in charge of implementing the policy approved by MIT’s faculty in March 2009.
Under the policy, faculty authors give MIT nonexclusive permission to disseminate their journal articles for open access through DSpace@MIT, an open-source software platform launched in 2002 to store the digital research materials of MIT faculty and researchers. Some articles are currently collected from the publishers with whom the Libraries have worked out special arrangements.
