File: Save As Marc

Quick Steps

  • In a record that you wish to save as a MARC record:
    • Choose File | Save As MARC; or press <F9>
    • Note the RIMMF Identifer for the record
  • Go to your RIMMF data folder
    • open the MARC folder and find the corresponding MARC record
    • open the MARC record using some sort of MARC software such as MARC Report, or your ILS system

Detailed Steps

To export a RIMMF record as a MARC record:

  • With the record open:
    • Choose File | Save As MARC; or press <F9>

  • Note the RIMMF Identifer for the record

  • Go to your RIMMF data folder 1)
    • open the MARC folder and find the corresponding MARC record (using the RIMMF Identifier you noted down earlier)
    • open the MARC record using some sort of MARC software

Notes

The actual MARC instructions are still 'Under Construction', but we have begun to set up the Person entity Rda2Marc/A mapping, and the Manifestation entity Rda2Marc/B mapping so you can try this <F9> step with records for both entities (as long as they were created using RIMMF2) and see how it looks.

1)
When you open a record (not a template), and select the 'Save As MARC' option, or press <F9>, RIMMF will produce a MARC record, based on the MARC Mapping instructions; and write it to the data folder used for your records.
