Cataloging & Processing
 Brodart provides you with high quality cataloging components that follow your exact specifications. You work hard to keep your library up to date and we take great pride in tailoring our technical services to meet your ever-changing needs. When you need assistance in processing your books, turn to Brodart.

Standard Cataloging

We maintain an enormous database of full level bibliographic records originally cataloged with material in hand. These records follow AACR2 and LCRI rules. We deliver these records to you in a machine-readable format per your specifications.

A significant number of customizations to Standard records can be made within the pricing parameters Brodart considers "standard." That is, at no significant cost increase. We deliver these base-price, bibliographic records with profile-driven classifications and holdings records individualized for your library. (Note that Standard records include the call number/classification number assigned by the Library of Congress. The length of this number is programmable, however.) In order to be priced as Standard records, all such customizations must be profile-driven and performed programmatically. Thus, to sum up Standard Cataloging:
