[DCRM-L] Local MARC cataloging systems

[Allison Jai O'Dell]

MarcEdit basically picks up where MARCMaker left off for data conversation.
 It's easy to install and pretty intuitive to use.

Deborah, could you clarify whether your catalogers will be encoding records
in MARC themselves?  Or do you just need to extract information from
existing MARC records?
