Installation of MarcEdit on Ubuntu/Lubuntu-14.04
Dear Friends,
Good Morning!!
MarcEdit, a free tool developed by Terry Reese in 1999, is used for different purposes and highly used by computer experts and especially, it is very useful in Data Migration and Conversion. It can be installed on cross platforms such as Windows, Linux etc.
Marc Edit is software used mainly for cleansing the data for migration purpose. The software makes the work easy as it enables the technical experts to add/delete the information in data exported from the source structure. It also helps in making the data as per the target structure.
This software is available free of cost and available to download and install for windows, linux etc.
I tried to install on Lubuntu-14.04 LTS and here are the steps to install MarcEdit:
