<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-family:"Georgia","serif";color:#215868">Does anyone have knowledge of or advice about freely accessible MARC cataloging software? I know about MARCMaker, which has been around for a long time. However, it is not available
for Windows 7, and there’s no reason to think it will be updated. <o:p></o:p></span></p>

<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-family:"Georgia","serif";color:#215868">I’m coordinating a project in which catalogers will create original DCRM(B) records for the ESTC database, based on full digital images of in-scope items not yet in the ESTC. In
order to make this feasible, the individual catalogers need to be working in a program that allows importing of MARC data; this program needs to be freely available, and preferably easy to use. <o:p></o:p></span></p>
