MAchine Readable Catalog(u)ing (MaRC)
‘The idea of using computers to speed up catalogue production goes back to the 1950s
but it was not until 1965 that MARC came into being’ [Bowman, 2003, p.10]

MAchine Readable Catalog(u)ing (MaRC)
‘MARC is the most widely used standard for the storage and communication of bibliographic data
within the world’s libraries’ [Oddy, 1996, p.63]

and is out of step with programming styles of today’ (p24)

‘pursuing a replacement of the MARC format as the common
exchange currency for bibliographic data’ (p1)

‘the semantic web and the linked data model hold interesting
possibilities for libraries and cultural heritage insitutions’ (p1)

Key to its development ‘the Web environment, Linked Data Principles and mechanisms, and the Resource

A major focus of the project is to translate the MARC 21 format to a
Linked Data (LD) model while retaining as much as possible the
robust and beneficial aspects of the historical format.

‘The new model is more than a replacement for the library community’s current model/format, MARC. It is
the foundation for the future of bibliographic
description that happens on, in, and as part of the web and the networked world
we live in.’ (p3)
