MARC Records

At Opars, we are dedicated to providing our customers with the highest quality Persian books and innovative services. That’s why we are proud to offer our MARC (MAchine-Readable Cataloguing) record service, which provides crucial metadata about our Persian books to libraries and other institutions worldwide.

As the first International Persian bookseller to offer MARC records for Persian books, we are committed to advancing the field of Persian literature and making it accessible to readers around the globe. Our MARC records are of the highest quality, ensuring that our customers’ books are accurately represented and easily discoverable.

To further enhance the quality and accuracy of our MARC records, we have been assigned a MARC Organisation Code by the British Library. Our assigned code “UkLoOL” uniquely identifies our organisation as the source of our MARC records and ensures their accuracy and efficiency.
