    Eduncle Best Answer

    ONIX International : Standard and data elements in the MARC 21 Format for Bibliographic Data. The ONIX International standard is intended to provide publishers with a means to share product and supplier information usable on the Internet. It is developed and maintained by EDItEUR, jointly with the Association of American Publishers, Book Industry Communication and Book Industry Study Group. ONIX Release 2.1 was made available in June 2003. It is this version that was used to establish the original mapping to MARC 21.
    Standard Generalized Markup Language (SGML) : SGML is a technique for representing documents in machine-readable form which was approved as an international standard, ISO 8879 (Information processing--Text and office systems--Standard Generalized Markup Language). It was developed to fill the need for a non-proprietary standard for text encoding so that machine-readable data could be exchanged between dissimilar text encoding environments. SGML is widely used in the publishing industry where documents are created using various computer systems. SGML supports the definition of sets of elements, some of them abstract, that constitute specific document types (for example, journal articles). 
    MARC-21 : The MARC 21 [insert name of publication that was translated] was originally prepared by the Network Development MARC Standards Office, Library of Congress and the Standards Division, Library and Archives Canada. It has been translated with permission.
