[LM_NET] MARC records for textbooks

[Harry Coffill <HCoffill@EGRPS.ORG>]

Friends-

We use Follett for text check-out. Our current MARC records for textbooks only 
contain title and publisher. I would like to update MARCs for these, but would 
rather (for obvious reasons) not do original cataloging for them.

I'm able to find the MARCs on Worldcat--but they're not downloadable. My old 
reliable (Canada Libraries) don't seem to hold these in their collection.

I tried pasting the Wordcat MARCs in to a text file and importing them. (Didn't 
work) Anyone else have an idea/source for textbook MARC downloads? We're still 
using Circ Plus.

I'll post a hit if there's interest.

"Anything that is in the world when you're born is normal and ordinary and is just 
a natural part of the way the world works. Anything that's invented between when 
you're fifteen and thirty-five is new and exciting and revolutionary and you can 
probably get a career in it. Anything invented after you're thirty-five is against 
the natural order of things."-Douglas Adams
