How about mapping PBCore to the CIDOC-CRM as a hub format then going into MARC?

http://www.cidoc-crm.org/crm_mappings.html - I don't see a PBCore mapping yet, but it should be doable.

You may have to use the FRBRoo extension (http://www.cidoc-crm.org/frbr_inro.html) for some fields.

The beauty of doing it that way would be that your intermediate data would also have a longer term usability if you convert to another schema later on.

Or if your institution is really generous, get them to fund a mapping of PBCore and (the relevant bits of) MARC21 to the VMF: http://www.doi.org/VMF/registering.html and put it out there for everyone (including any DOI registrations) to link to?

Cheers,

Michael

Ah, that makes sense. I could try  PBCore>Dublin Core>MARC 21.
