This would probably make more sense over on the microformats-discuss
list. Edward - visit

I'm crossposting this over there in case this is a solved problem already...
There are a bunch of links about encoding MARC data in SGML/XML here:
http://xml.coverpages.org/marc.html
Here's the official schema:
http://www.loc.gov/standards/marcxml/schema/MARC21slim.xsd
There are examples at:
http://www.loc.gov/standards/marcxml/
It looks like MARCXML is pretty cryptic. The MODS or Dublin Core
transformations might work better as a microformat:

http://www.loc.gov/standards/marcxml/Sandburg/sandburgdc.xml
Cheers,
Phil

hReview isn't quite right, and there's a lot
of potentially useful book metadata that
comes from a standard format (US-MARC)
and should be straightforward to map in.
