Abstract

In March 2001, the UNIMARC Manual - Authorities Format, 2nd Edition was published by K.G. Saur on behalf of the IFLA UBCIM Programme. This edition replaced UNIMARC/Authorities: Universal Format for Authorities, published in 1991. The Permanent UNIMARC Committee initiated the production of a new edition to align UNIMARC with the recommendations of the IFLA Report, Mandatory Data Elements of Internationally Shared Resource Authority Records; in addition, it was recognised that after 10 years of practical use there were many other useful enhancements. This paper will describe these changes. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Abstract

The experience of the Research Libraries Group, Inc. (RLG) and Consortium of European Research Libraries (CERL) with round trip conversion of UNIMARC data to a MARC 21-based format shows that there are considerable difficulties in such a conversion. However, various techniques can be used to deal quite successfully with the incompatibilities of those two formats. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
