Yes, I use the MARC 034 and 255 formatted field information found in the Klokan tool.

CAUTION: External Sender

 

With the recommended best practice of formatting coordinate values in decimal form in the 034 field (for machine manipulation purposes) we catalogers also need the equivalent of the MARC OCLC DEC format that is in the Klokan tool. We then already have the DMS format in place for use in 255$c. Many of the format types in that pulldown work best in other metadata schema types so it would be good to try and reproduce most, if not all, of those formats.

Hey all,

 

Ask and you shall receive! Or at least, speak up you never know who's listening!

Dave Soller and Chris Garrity of USGS heard our cries and put this together. 



The question for the group - or as Chris calls all y'all - my team - what other formatting types do we need? I need the MARC OCLC formatting type and that's it. What else are people using at bounding box?



Chris seems open to other comments or suggestions. Please funnel those through me and I'll share them with him.
