Dear All,
Here at Heythrop we are part of an Innopac consortium, together with the
University of London Library. We are approaching our UKMARC to MARC21
conversion project (probably sometime from June 2002 onwards), and the
question has arisen about what we want to do with conversion of the data in
the 248 field.
One option is to keep the 248 field much as it is (with punctuation added
during conversion), but as MARC21 doesn't have the 248 field I'm not really
convinced that this is such a good idea.
We would be very grateful if anyone with experience of UKMARC to MARC21
conversion could let us know their solution to the 248 problem.
Best wishes,
Michael Morgan.
Michael Morgan
