Monika Muennich,
There is a JMARC format that is used by the National Diet Library and
probably other agencies in Japan, although NACSIS may have some special
formats for some of their databases. The Library of Congress wrote a
conversion program for converting JMARC to USMARC -- a very complex
operation -- in the early 1990s.
