TIND MARCXML

Revision as of 11:35, 6 January 2023 by ErinBlake (talk | contribs) (Added MARC category)

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>
