The purpose of this study is to identify and present the solution to the problems of KORMARC on Disc, which was produced by the National Library of Korea and is being distributed nationwide. Currently, KORMARC on Disc has reached the serious level of duplicates of input record, error on input data and noise of retrieval. Futhermore, input data is not in accordance with KORMARC Rules for Descriptive Cataloging, thus generating many problems. Of all thing, since current MARC system itself is based on manual system, it does not correspond effectively to the online environment. Accordingly, in order to elevate the quality of KORMARC database, current problems must be resolved, at the same time, korea Machine Readable Cataloging must be modified into a format, more suitable to Machine Readable environment. Consequently, the current study analyzes and identifies problems of data in KORMARC on Disc, at the same time, it examines currently used KORMARC Format and Korea machine Readable Cataloging Rules for descriptive Cataloging as to provide easier usage and guidelines for accurate data inputs.

One of the major problems on the design of an online database for machine readable data file is on the implementation of MARC format for communication with the Library of Congress or OCLC. Most of the cataloging data to make manual card catalogs are stored on magnetic tapes based on the MARC format at LC or OCLC and are sent to local libraries. Therefore, local libraries can avoid the expensive process of cataloging for the books they own. Instead, they can retrieve the necessary cataloging information from the tape and print out manual card catalogs. A problem with MARC is that it is not designed for databases, but for portability to be read at any type of computer. Therfore, it is not practical to use the format on the development of an online database as long as the database is developed in conjunction with a commercial powerful database package. In this paper a possible methodology to resolve the conflicts between the objective of DBMS and MARC is discussed. It is to satisfy the requirements from a commercial DBMS while leaving a room for MARC to communicate with LC and OCLC.

This paper aims to improve the KCR and KORMARC for the cataloging electronic resources. In this study, therefore, at first the characteristics and kinds of electronic resources were examined as the backgrounds. Then the cataloging rules (AACR2R NCR1994, ISBD(ER) and KORMARC Descriptive Rule) and the MARC formats (MARC21, OCLC-MARC and KORMARC) were analyzed. Finally, the improvements of KCR and KORMARC for the cataloging electronic resources were suggested.

인터넷에서의 정보자원의 증가에 따라 정보자원관리 기법의 관심이 높아지고 있는 가운데 기존의 HTML과 SGML의 단점을 보완한 구조화된 포맷인 XML의 응용에 대한 연구가 활발해지고 있다. 본 논문에서는 전통적인 도서관에서 서지레코드로 널리 사용되고 있는 구조화된 포맷인 MARC을 대상으로 현황과 문제점을 살펴보고, MARC을 XML로 변환하는 데 따른 기대효과를 고찰한다. 또한, 우리나라 MARC 포맷인 KORMARC을 XML로 변환하기 위하여 KORMARC에 대한 DTD를 설계한다.

본 연구에서는 현재 DOI를 위한 메타데이터로 채택되어 활발하게 연구되고 있는 전자상거래를 위한 메타데이터 INDECS(Interoperability of Data in E-Commerce Systems)를 전통적 형태의 메타데이터인 MARC21 (MAchine Readable Cataloging)과 더블린코어(Dublin Core) 메타데이터간의 데이터 요소들을 비교하여, 서로 다른 메타데이터간의 상호운용성을 제공하기 위한 방안에 대하여 연구하였다.

학술연구를 수행하는데 도움이 되는 중요한 정보 중의 하나는 학술연구자가 연구 중인 분야의 최신 논문에 대한 원문 정보와 이 논문이 실려 있는 학술지의 소장 정보라고 할 수 있다. 이러한 정보를 효과적으로 학술 연구자에게 제공하기 위해 첨단학술정보센터(Korea Research Information Center: KRIC)에서는 전문학술정보센터(Special Research Information Center: SRIC)로 지정된 대학도서관에서 구독하는 학술지에 게재된 논문에 대한 목록 데이터를 통합하는 학술지논문 종합목록 시스템을 구축 중이다. 이 시스템에서는 기존의 대학도서관에서 사용하고 있는 목록기술규칙인 MAEX(MAchine Readable Cataloging)대신 인터넷 기반의 디지털 도서관에 적합한 형태를 가지는 더블린 코아를 새로운 목록기술규칙으로 채택하였다. 이러한 더블린 코아를 사용하게 되면 목록자는 전문적인 교육 없이도 간편하게 새로운 목록을 작성할 수 있다. 학술지논문 종합목록이 구축되면 학술연구자들은 원하는 논문이 검색된 경우, 원문이 구축되어 있으면 인터넷을 통해 곧바로 원문을 볼 수 있고, 원문이 구축되어 있지 않다면 복사/팩스 서비스 시스템을 통해 원문을 제공받을 수 있게 된다.

이 글은 미국의회도서관에서 발행한 Understanding MARC Bibliographic: Machine-Readable Cataloging의 온라인 버전 최신판(제5판)을 미국의회도서관의 공식적인 번역 허락을 얻어 그 제1편을 한국어로 완역한 것이다. 이 글은 원래 Betty Furrie가 The Follett Software Company의 Data Base Development Department와의 협력으로 작성한 것이다. 제5판은 미국의회도서관의 Network Development and MARC Standards Office의 검토와 편집을 거쳐, The Follett Software Company의 협력으로, Cataloging Distribution Service에 의해 발행되었다. LCMARC과 USMARC을 거쳐, 새로이 태어난 MARC 21의 최신 내용을 알기 쉽게 정리하고 있어, MARC에 대한 기본적인 이해에 많은 도움이 될 것이다. 아울러 MARC에 관련된 업무는 물론 일반 편목 업무의 적지 않은 관례들이 왜곡되어 있는 측면이 없지 않은 한국 도서관계의 현실에서는 우리가 나아가야 할 방향을 다시 한번 생각해 볼 수 있는 좋은 기회를 제공해 주는 유익한 자료가 될 수 있을 것이다.

The external forms and contents of many library materials are very various. The physical description of the specific materials in the forms must be fitted to each forms. The oriental traditional books are very special in the printing forms. The machine readable cataloging of library materials is used internationally in these days. So, the cataloging of the oriental traditional materials must be reconsidered for computerizing of that. The physical descriptions of these materials will accord with ISBD to prepare for comuterzing of that. This study presented the recording forms of physical description that fitted to peculiarity of the oriental traditional materials and it refered to ISBD of non-book materials that are special in the forms. These recording forms of that are as the follows; The first part is the recording forms of description and number of the parts of items. The second part is the recording forms of the other physical details. This part contains the Illustration, Kwankwak, Keseon, Hengjasu, Heucku, Eormee. The Third part is the dimensions of items. The dimensions of the oriental traditional books consist of two kind. One is the dimensions of actual printing. The other is that of a book cover. The fourth part is the recording forms of the accompany materials.

Some conclusions can be derived from the study: 1. Person's name should be script by the one's mother tongue because of its uniqueness. 2. Japanese person's name should be script and pronounce their mother tongue for exchange and sharing of an academic information. 3. We can anticipate that Japanese language materials will be increase in near future. 4. The National Central Library which publish Korean National Bibliography must have to responsibility to lead other library. 5. The script of [Korean National bibliography] must contribute to standardization and national and Universal Bibliographic Control. 6. The area of education, newspaper, publishing are scripting Japanese person's name with script conversion schemes for Koreanization, devised by Ministry of Education. 7. The script of [Korean National Bibliography]'s name index can be used as authority file at selection of heading in library cataloging. 8. Most of libraries script Japanese person's name with Chinese character in Korean language pronunciation. 9. Korean Cataloging Rules (KCR) and Korean Machine Readable Cataloguing (KORMARC) description rules should be defined about the mother tongue script of Japanese person's name. 10. It is desirable to increase of credit of Readings in Japanese material course in college curriculum. 11. Because Japanese person's name is complex and variable that it is desirable to add Chinese character with mother tongue script.

Although MAchine Readable Cataloging (MARC) and Functional Requirements for Bibliographic Records (FRBR) are currently the most broadly used bibliographic structures for generating bibliographic data in the library community, each has its own weaknesses in describing information resources in diverse media. If the MARC format could be implemented in a structure that reflects the multi-layered characteristics of FRBR, its use could address current problems and limitations in resource description. The purpose of this research is to propose an alternative approach that can integrate the heterogeneous bibliographic structures of MARC and FRBR through the applications of facet and facet analysis. The proposed faceted data model is expected to function as a conceptual structure that can mediate between MARC data elements and FRBR attributes in order to utilize these structures in a more reliable and comprehensive way.
