Re: [Bibdesk-users] Z39.50 at DDB/DNB (Deutsche Nationalbibliothek)

AFAICS, the encoding is no problem. We just don't get any record, and  
we don't use the encoding to download records, only to interpret  
them. Also the syntax should not be a problem, as it should be able  
to return USMARC according to the PDF you link to. So I don't know  
what goes wrong.

 Ladies and gentlemen,

 I would like to import information from DDB (German Bibliography) by
 BibDesk's Search.

 For this I use the access described on http://www.d-nb.de/service/zd/
 z39_50.htm. Target profile is provided on http://www.d-nb.de/eng/
 service/pdf/ddb-prf2002.pdf.

 I filled in this information as follows:

 Searches - New Search Group - Type Z39.50 / Server: Other - Name:
 DDB / Database: iltis / Address: z3950.dbf.ddb.de / Port: 210 /
 USername: gast / Password: gast)

 I did not manage to get bibliographical information from this source,
 probably because the Encoding (ISO646 or 5426) and Syntax (SUTRS) are
 different from those provided in BibDesk's pop-up-menu. Is there a
 way to change this in coming versions?

 Other sources do work properly, for example University of Zuerich.

 Any help?

 Kind regards,
 Hanjo.

In March, Christiaan wrote the following regarding SUTRS:

 BibDesk cannot parse GRS-1 and SUTRS formats. None of the  
 developers knows
 GRS-1, and SUTRS is not well defined, and otherwise is not designed  
 to be
 machine readable and therefore difficult or impossible to parse  
 reliably.

Unless something has changed here, it doesn't look good for you I'm  
afraid.

It seems indeed that DDB only returns SUTRS. And as in Simon's quotes  
from me, that unfortunately ends it.
