A cross-platform solution for bibliographic record manipulation in digital libraries
نویسندگان
چکیده
We investigate the problem of a collaborative digital library collection that allows librarians and non-librarians alike to share information on specific topics through MARC records. Many existing software tools for creating bibliographic records are not platform independent. Tools that are platform independent are integrated into library software and therefore cannot be used with any existing system. J-MARC is a cross-platform tool for creating and editing bibliographic records. J-MARC can be used in conjunction with any digital library software that supports the MARC record format. We present the architecture and functionality of J-MARC, along with an example application where J-MARC can be used alongside an existing digital library software package.

متن کاملSystem Support for Name Authority Control Problem in Digital Libraries: OpenDBLP Approach
In maintaining Digital Libraries, having bibliographic data up-to-date is critical, yet often minor irregularities may cause information isolation. Unlike documents for which various kinds of unique ID systems exist (e.g., DOI, ISBN), other bibliographic entities such as author and publication venue do not have unique IDs. Therefore, in current Digital Libraries, tracking such bibliographic ent...
