MarcEdit

MarcEdit is free software developed primarily for the library cataloging community to lower technical barriers and empower librarians to take more control over their organization’s metadata. Created in 1999 by Terry Reese, creator of  as a global editing utility for MARC data, MarcEdit has since evolved into a full suite of tools to create, harvest, and manipulate a variety of non-MARC metadata as well.

Terry runs courses in how and why to use this software, and his courses have been advertised lately on library lists, which is how I got to hear about them. These courses are useful for manipulating information in databases at institutional level.
