TIND MARCXML

Revision as of 18:31, 10 November 2022 by ErinBlake (talk | contribs) (Added link to TIND batch upload from MARC)

Some features of TIND's MARCXML don't play well with standard MARCXML and vice versa. This article describes the changes that need to be made in a text editor after converting to MARC21XML in MarcEdit, or before uploading to MarcEdit as MARC21XML. See also TIND batch upload from MARC.

TIND's MARCXML requirements

  • Use "000" instead of "leader" or "LDR"
  • Spaces in control fields must be replaced with a backslash
  • Delete MARC 005 before attempting to replace records on 035 match
Examples of replacements
MARC21XML TIND MARCXML
<leader> </leader> <controlfield tag="000"> </controlfield>
<marc:leader> </marc:leader> <marc:controlfield tag="000"> </controlfield>
