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.

you're thirty-five is against the natural order of things."-Douglas
