  • What this blog post is about: How do you figure out if a bib is “print” or not from a MARC record?
  • The problem is that the origins of AACR2-MARC sort of assume print as a default, there’s no leader bytes or 007 or 008 code for ‘print’, print is sort of the absence of anything else.

    The burgeoning presence of ebooks on library catalogs is producing an unexpected problem-- what if the patron wants a print version of a book as opposed to an ebook version? How do you tease that out of MARC? RDA's GMD appears to be helpful, but not a useful as the Leader, 007, or 008 fields.

    An article I found interesting both for how the Douglas County Libraries was trying to own rather then license much of their e-resources and store it on a server, but also how they were working with the metadata for those resources, converting it bu a crosswalk from the publication industry's XML-based ONIX (ONline Information eXchange) or simple Excel into Marc.
