Nathan, Ed Summers' ruby-marc is an excellent way to get Voyager's generally pretty crappy MARC batch export into XML. http://www.textualize.com/ruby_marc Use the MARC::ForgivingReader and then you output everything using MARC::XMLWriter. For a collection the size of yours it's going to take a long while, though. -Ross.
