Is there a full-featured ILS that is not based on MARC records?
I know we love complexity, but it seems to me that my public library and
its library network and maybe even every public library could probably do
without 95% of MARC Fields and encoding, streamline workflows and save $ if
there were a simpler standard.
Is this what an Endeca-based system is about, or do those rare birds also
use MARC in the background?
Forgive me if the question has been hashed and rehashed over the years...
