Fun. I was thinking of doing something in Perl but no never mind. Any system that would the the following would work for me: 1. Export (to a file system) MARC data in communications format 2. Do "magic". 3. Make MARC records accessible via OAI. Such an implementation could be operating system independent, standards compliant, and vendor-neutral. -- Eric Morgan
