Our library has worked very hard to get our print holdings into MARC Format, but now we want to share that information with a third party listing service that has its own, different date format options. Specifically, they need the beginning
and ending dates in separate, delimited fields. And they don’t want the volume information at all.
Customer Service says they do not have an automated way to convert our information and did not answer when I asked if their offer to copy-and-paste included moving date information.
So I am looking for a way to more easily convert MFHD into different date formats without setting the whole department to cutting and pasting, line-by-line. Has anyone else worked through this problem successfully?
Thank you .
