MARC

MARC: Machine Readable Cataloging is an international metadata standard developed by the Library of Congress to enable the interchange of descriptive cataloging information in a computerized environment. Numerous archival management systems such as Archivists’ Toolkit enable the export of archival metadata records in the MARC format to incorporate archival records in library catalogs.
