XML and its ancillary technologies—XSD, XSLT, and XQuery—enable librarians to take advantage of powerful, XML-aware applications, facilitate the interoperability and sharing of XML metadata, and make it possible to realise the full promise of XML to support more powerful and more efficient library cataloguing and metadata workflows.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eWhile by no means the only technology arrow in a modern-day cataloguer’s or metadata librarian’s knowledge and skills quiver, a firm understanding of XML remains relevant and helpful for those working in modern bibliographic control or with information discovery services. Even experienced cataloguers who know their way around the tags and strings of a MARC record occasionally need help and advice when creating metadata for sharing bibliographic records or digital collections on the web.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThis handbook from the Association for Library Collections \u0026amp; Technical Services (ALCTS) illustrates with examples how XML and associated technologies can be used to edit metadata at scale, streamline and scale up metadata and cataloguing workflows, and to extract, manipulate, and construct MARC records and other formats and types of library metadata.
