This year the ALCTS Forum at ALA MidwinterL1 brought together three perspectives on massaging bibliographic data of various sorts in ways that use MARC, but where MARC is not the end goal. What do you get when you swirl MARC, ONIX, and various other formats of metadata in a big pot? Three projects: ONIX Enrichment at OCLC, the Open Library Project, and Google Book Search metadata.
This list provides a quick overview of the landscape of open-source bibliographic software; both where is has been, but more importantly, where it may yet go.
Som jag sagt tidigare, dags för de svenska biblioteken att börja indexera digitala böcker som faller under public domain! Här finns Z39.50-servrar, bara för biblioteken att hämta poster därifrån!
