What record format is used?--is the data easily transferred to and from
"commercial" library databases?

I'm not actually using Koha yet, but my understanding is:

The records would typically be typed by hand, although you could probably 
write some Perl scripts to import existing records.  If you have MARC 
records, you could use MARC.pm to do this.

>Is this MARC  record?

Koha does not currently use the MARC format.
