Augmenting the Cataloger’s Bag of Tricks : Using MarcEdit, Python, and PyMARC for Batch-Processing MARC Records Generated From the Archivists’ Toolkit. By Heidi Frank Introduction The tools for catalogers have traditionally included content standards, such as AACR2, LCSH, LC Classification, and now RDA, and the medium for these standards has been the MARC format. However, with more and more resources to describe and catalog, the approach of dealing with them one-by-one is not sustainable, and many catalogers who work with MARC records in traditional library settings are now finding that they may need a new approach, one that combines traditional cataloging standards and programming, in order to efficiently manage their workflows.
Although the combination of these two activities can make a cataloger’s workload more manageable, many catalogers do not yet have the programming skills and find themselves needing to work with programmers to achieve their goals. Unfortunately, there is often a disconnect when it comes to communication between the two groups, especially when dealing with legacy MARC data. MarcEdit Python Scripting with PyMARC.

Library of Congress Tutorial - Call Number and Shelving. Cataloging FAQ. FRBR outside the box. FRBR outside the box. © TheArtGuy Library catalogues have traditionally been used to describe and register books and journals and other physical objects that together constitute the holdings of a library. In an integrated library system (ILS), the public catalogue is combined with acquisition and circulation modules to administer the purchases of book copies and journal subscriptions on one side, and the loans to customers on the other side.
The “I” for “Integrated” in ILS stands for an internal integration of traditional library workflows. Integration from a back end view, not from a customer perspective. Because of the very nature of such a catalogue, namely the description of physical objects and the administration of processing them, there are no explicit relations between the different editions and translations of the same book, nor are there descriptions of individual journal articles. In traditional library catalogues digital items are treated exactly the same as their physical counterparts. MARC Code List for Languages: Name Sequence.

Functional Analysis of the MARC 21 Bibliographic and Holdings Formats Network Development and MARC Standards Office Library of Congress The following is based on an analysis prepared by Tom Delsey as part of the Functional Analysis of the MARC 21 Bibliographic and Holdings Formats study that he developed for the Network Development and MARC Standards Office (NDMSO). NDMSO has added display examples to accompany the study as Section 4. Contents 1. Introduction The feasibility of creating records describing multiple manifestations of the same work has been a recurring topic of discussion within the MARC community for more than a decade, but to date there has been no effective resolution of the issue.
A number of recommendations relating to the "multiple versions" issue were put forward at the Bicentennial Conference on Bibliographic Control in the New Millennium, hosted by the Library of Congress in November 2000.

Subject Headings in Full-Text Environments: The ECCO Experiment — College & Research Libraries. Bibliographic records regularly combine two incommensurable types of description: one that captures the physical and textual facts of a work, the other that seeks to encompass succinctly the work’s intellectual content.
This article deals with the second type of bibliographic description: subject headings and their contribution to resource discovery. The article reports on an experiment at Northwestern University Library to add subject headings to online records for the Eighteenth Century Collections Online (ECCO).The author assesses the benefits of this enhancement by using a representative research topic: a search for contemporary material on the East India Company (1600–1873).
This article extends arguments recently presented by Gross and Taylor (2005) in two directions: first, by considering the importance of subject headings for access to historical materials; and, second, by examining the value added by subject headings even when the full text of a work is available online.
