MARC::SubjectMap is a set of modules and command line utilities for
translating subject headings in your MARC data.
INSTALLATION
To install this module type the following:
perl Makefile.PL
make
make test
make install
HOWTO
First you will need a batch of MARC records to generate a SubjectMap config
file using the subjmap-tmpl command line tool. You tell subjmap-tmpl what
subject fields you would like to be examined for translation, and it will
take a pass through your data and auto-generate your stubbed out
configuration:
In this example the x, y, z, and v subfields of the MARC 650 field are extracted
for translation. In addition the configuration will also include instructions
to copy subfields a and q since they do not require translation.
This software was commissioned by Queens Borough Public Library who
made its creation possible, and had the generosity to make the
software opensource.
