Nice work Bill. A while back Chris Biemesderfer added a section on using Z39.50 to the MARC::Record tutorial: http://search.cpan.org/dist/MARC-Record/lib/MARC/Doc/Tutorial.pod#Z39.50 If you have MARC::Record installed the tutorial is already hiding on your disk somewhere, and can be retrieved by typing: perldoc MARC::Doc::Tutorial At any rate I reach for ruby quite a bit these days--so thanks for your script. If you want to provide it as a cmd line option you could optionally output as dublin core w/ the to_dublin_core method that Will Groppe added to ruby-marc. I like how you list out some z39.50 servers. Have you ever run across this google map/z39.50 mashup [1]? I imagine there is some kind of directory (at IndexData?) that perhaps your script could use somehow. //Ed [1] http://opus.tu-bs.de/zack/statistic/targetmaps/
