Abstract
Since the Internet has grown as a popular place to buy books, the publishers need badly a standard format that can use to distribute electronic information about their books to wholesale and retail booksellers, and anyone else involved in the sale of books. ONIX, stands for Online Information eXchange, is one of such standard formats. This article describes the background and development of ONIX, also explores the library’s role in the mapping from ONIX to MARC.
