Easy Marc: A Simplified Guide to Creating Catalog Records for Library Automation Systems (Easy Marc)
Used Book in Good Condition
Completely revised and updated for 2007! If you have an automated cataloging system and do any cataloging using the MARC records, this is the users bible. Arranged like a dictionary, tag by tag, the user can look up any tag and find easy-to-understand explanations of what information to put in the tag and in what form. Piepenburg not only explains the tag, but gives numerous examples that cover 90% of the cases one would face. In addition, references to AACR2 and USMARC Bibliographic rules and rule numbers help the cataloger refer to the authoritative sources quickly to make correct judgements.
Of value particularly to beginners, this book is also a quick source to find examples for the experienced cataloger, particularly the cross references that relate various tags to each other.
