I have received several enquiries regarding the job specification for this
post. I should like to say to all those who are interested that, by
suggesting that a knowledge of MARC cataloguing is desirable, the
University Librarian intended only to indicate that a close working
relationship exists between the Archives and the Library - as indeed it
does - and this should not be interpreted to mean that MARC is used for
archive cataloguing.
Please rest assured that ISAD(G) and ISAAR(CPR) are the applied archive
standards, our current archive projects are formatted to EAD, and we are
about to purchase ADLIB software for the archive database.
I hope this clarifies things but, of course, if you have any other
questions, please contact me.
