Thomale, Jason (2010). Interpreting MARC: Where’s the Bibliographic Data? Code4Lib Journal Issue 11.
september 2010 by mjlassila
MARC predates the earliest formal expression of relational data modeling concepts by three years. It is at its heart, a data format built to contain catalog records; bibliographic items are described via the catalog records rather than directly via the structured MARC data. Understanding and internalizing this leads us to the insight: if we think of those catalog records as structured documents rather than as data records, then MARC has as much in common with a textual markup language (such as SGML or HTML) as it does with what we might consider to be “structured data.”
