Hi Emmanuel, > I'm trying to convert an ISIS database to MARC21
What is the character set encoding of the data in the ISIS database? What is the desired character set encoding for the MARC21 records? I.e. MARC-8 or MARC Unicode(UTF-8)? If they are dissimilar character encodings, is the data undergoing a character set conversion? -- Michael # Michael Doran, Systems Librarian # University of Texas at Arlington # 817-272-5326 office # 817-688-1926 mobile # [EMAIL PROTECTED] # http://rocky.uta.edu/doran/ > -----Original Message----- > From: Emmanuel Di Pretoro [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] > Sent: Monday, July 14, 2008 2:15 AM > To: perl4lib@perl.org > Subject: Biblio::Isis and character encoding > > Hi, > > Currently I'm trying to convert an ISIS database to MARC21.
