Which of the following is not a standard for bibliographic records ?
Answer: D
The answer is AACR-2.
ISBD (International Standard Bibliographic Description) prescribes the elements of a bibliographic record and their order and punctuation, MARC is the machine-readable format in which records are coded, and ISO 2709 is the international standard structure for exchanging such records on tape or file. All three standardise the bibliographic record itself.
AACR-2, the Anglo-American Cataloguing Rules, second edition, is a cataloguing code: a body of rules telling a cataloguer how to choose access points and form headings. It applies the ISBD within its rules but is not itself a standard for the record, which is the distinction the question rests on.
