Machine-Readable Bibliographic Information Committee (MARBI)

An Interdivisional Joint Committee

MARBI encourages the creation of needed standards for the presentation in machine-readable form of bibliographic information; reviews and evaluates proposed standards; recommends approval of standards in conformity with ALA policy; establishes a mechanism for continuing review of standards (including the monitoring of further development); provides commentary on the content of various implementations of standards to concerned agencies; and maintains liaison with concerned units within ALA (especially the ALA Standards Committee), and relevant outside agencies.
