Here at Durham our database is being converted to MARC21 even as I send
this, and although I don't have the details to hand, our Collection
Management staff are less than ecstatic about the single line displays
etc they are going to be getting in GUICAT Z39.50 searching of CURL
which is going to be much more cumbersome to use than the old telnet
route.
I have down as an action point to work through whether the limitations
are with the INNOPAC implementation of Z39.50 or on the CURL side, so
any information in this regard would be appreciated as others may
already have this.
And I would also be interested in software alternatives if any are in
use.
I wonder if this might be a good topic for the User Group, as an
optional session?
