Janet,
You could download a CSV file of:
Title
Title Alternative
Identifier
Publisher
Language
ISSN
EISSN
Keyword
Start Year
End Year
Added on date
from http://www.doaj.org/doaj?func=csv and then turn that into MARC
records using http://www.loc.gov/marc/makrbrkr.html
We use this technique for DOAJ and in fact for all of our other batches
of journal records in Big Deals.
If you use the DOAJ metadata then I'd humbly suggest you do the decent
thing and become a member of DOAJ:
http://www.doaj.org/doaj?func=membership to help keep it going.
Then again, I'd suggest all libraries on this list join DOAJ anywway!
Only two UK members and two US members at the moment:

Subject: Catalogue records for free journals
At Oxford Brookes University, we have been creating catalogue records
for all the e-journals which we can access as we want to provide a
single route for all our journals, whether in print or electronic.
With the growth of resources such as the Directory of Open Access
Journals, this is proving an almost impossible task. We want to provide
access to these resources for our users, so have added the titles on the
A-to-Z service from Ebsco which we use. However, we are not certain
whether creating catalogue records for them all is feasible or even
desirable.
I would be very interested to hear how other libraries are dealing with
this issue.
Many thanks.
