OLAC CAPC
Video Language Coding Best Practices Task Force
This task force will create a set of best practices for coding MARC 008 and 041 language information for videos, especially DVDs, and will use that exercise to examine whether any changes could be made to the MARC format (coding or directions) that would improve access to the multiple types of language information found on videos.
Draft Best Practices and Recommendations (PDF version) (Oct. 2007)
OLAC has submitted a proposal based on the task force's recommendations
for changes to the MARC 21 bibliographic format to LC's Network
Development and MARC Standards Office. The final draft of best practices
is pending until after this proposal has been discussed by MARBI.
Task Force Members:
Kelley McGrath, Chair
Cindy Badilla-Melendez
