Video Language Coding


The OLAC CAPC Video Language Coding Best Practices Task Force Draft Recommendations (October 2007) are now available.
The task force was charged with creating a set of best practices for coding MARC 008/lang and 041 language information for videos, especially DVDs, and with using 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.
