This document is one part of the Implementation Guidelines that accompany the Open Archives Initiative Protocol for Metadata Harvesting (OAI-PMH).
Since the release of the MARCXML Schema for MARC21 metadata by the Library of Congress, June 2002, usage of MARCXML instead of oai_marc (described hereafter) is strongly recommended. Also a stylesheet supporting migration from oai_marc to MARCXML is provided on the MARCXML pages of the Library of Congress.
The following schema may be used to express MARC records in an XML format. This schema has been successfully applied for MARC21 records and it is likely that it could also be used for older versions of USMARC and CANMARC. This schema was introduced in OAI-PMH version 1.0 and revised (because of changes to XML Schema) in OAI-PMH version 1.1.
It is recommended that the metadataPrefix
"oai_marc
"
be used with this metadata format.
