- Canadian Experience with MARC. Chapple, Sharon E. Bilingualism Cataloging Citations (References) Databases Information Storage Magnetic Tapes National Libraries Serials Canadian libraries have used Machine-readable Cataloging (MARC) since its beginnings in 1966, mainly for speeding up the cataloging of American imprints. The lack of bilingualism in Library of Congress MARC records was a major deficiency in Canada where bilingual access points are provided for all publications in the national bibliography, "Canadiana," and where bilingual publications are cataloged in both English and French. In 1973, work began on a Canadian MARC format with bilingual access points, and Canadian MARC tapes were soon being produced.
