Outputting MARC holdings from Innovative Interfaces to SFX Shroyer, Andrew 15 Feb 2007 20:42 UTC

Dear Serialists,

If there is an institution (which uses Innovative and SFX) already doing
what we'd like to achieve, I would be very grateful to learn the steps.

We want to output just the years from our MARC 21 holdings statements
from Innovative and fashion them to agree with the Ex Libris format for
date thresholds.  The problem is with the many records that have
repeated 863's because of holdings gaps.

Has anyone successfully automated the output of multiple 863's for a
single title, with the ISSN repeated for each separate 863? (Ex Libris
will require an ISSN for each separate date threshold).

The end result sought is a display of the ranges of years in link text
within the SFX public menu screens.

Pls contact me if you're willing to share notes on this.  THANKS MUCH!
