MARC (MAchine Readable Cataloging)
|
||
|
|
||
|
MARC.pm is a Perl 5 module for reading in, manipulating, and outputting
|
||
|
bibliographic records in the USMARC format. It handles conversions
|
||
|
from MARC into ASCII (text), Library of Congress MARCMaker, HTML,
|
||
|
and ISBD. Input from MARCMaker format is also supported. Individual
|
||
|
records, fields, indicators, and subfields can be created, modified, and
|
||
|
deleted. It can extract URLs from the 856 field into HTML.
|
||
|
|
||
|
MARC.pm can handle both single and batches of MARC records. The limit on
|
||
|
the number of records in a batch is determined by the memory capacity of
|
||
|
the machine you are running. If memory is an issue for you MARC.pm will
|
||
|
allow you to read in records from a batch gradually. MARC.pm also includes
|
||
|
a variety of tools for searching, removing, and even creating records from
|
||
|
scratch.
