About the Event

OCLC is again offering "MARC 21 in Your Library," the popular course developed by Deborah Fritz and presented by The MARC of Quality (TMQ) trainers, as an online webinar. This course is an introduction to MARC21 and how it is meant to work in a library automation system. It explains what the MARC standards are and how those standards tie in with our cataloging rules (AACR) to help catalogers create data that will function effectively in a library catalog.
 
"TMQ MARC 21 in Your Library Part 1: MARC & Bibliographic Info Fundamentals" is a series of webcasts and web-based mini-courses that covers the underlying fundamentals of MARC and bibliographic information. Part 1 is available 24/7 at no charge. Part 1 is a pre-requisite for "TMQ MARC21 in Your Library Part 2: MARC Coding, the Core Codes and Their Functions." Part 2 of this course (for which there is a fee) is a series of three 2-hour webinars on consecutive days. (You will need to attend all 3 days).  Sessions are currently available August 2-4, 2010 and November 16-18, 2010.
