Reengineering a National Resource Discovery Service: MODS Down Under by Roxanne Missingham appears in the latest issue of
D-Lib Magazine.
Australian libraries have shared resources and records for over two decades through Kinetica, a service provided by the National Library of Australia. While this service has broadly met the needs of its users, comprising over 1000 Australian libraries, the Library is reengineering the service, using MODS (Metadata Object Description Schema) to improve coverage of online publications and records from specialist collections. This article describes the use of MODS to transform records for digital resources into MARC records for resource discovery.
