This category contains systems that collect, organize and manage MARC 21 records. For example, integrated library systems and stand-alone information retrieval applications are included in this category.
For more information about these systems, please see their corresponding websites.
MWeb™ Universal provides web-based federated searching of multiple databases of different types, on multiple Windows servers anywhere. Databases are searched on their existing servers -- ideal for consortia because it avoids having to send files to a common point.
Databases may include multiple MARC21 files in their native format -- no need to convert or export. Any number of databases and MARC files can be searched at once. All MARC files must be either bibliographic or authority, and encoded in either MARC-8 or UTF-8. (A later release will provide the ability to mix formats and encodings. UNIMARC and MARCXML will also be supported in a later release.)
Search features include keyword and phrase searching, boolean, truncation, and the ability to restrict searches to specific fields. In addition, searches can be restricted to subsets of the files, such as juvenilia, reference, records with specific fields, etc.
Images will show in MWeb™ search results and full records if they have URLs in the 856$u.
Each site may customize the searches, displays, and interface.
Low price with no annual fee. Free support is included.
