One word: MarcEdit

Catalogers know what I'm talking about
How often do you refer to or think about this @xkcd.com comic on "dependency" and how all of modern digital infrastructure relies on a project some random person in Nebraska has been thanklessly maintaining since 2003 www.explainxkcd.com/wiki/index.p...
2347: Dependency - explain xkcd
Explain xkcd is a wiki dedicated to explaining the webcomic xkcd. Go figure.

A thread 🧵from today's @cilipmdg.bsky.social Practical Cataloguing webinar on MARC data cleaning using Python.

A way to identify errors/inconsistencies in legacy metadata & automate specific clean-up actions. - A bit like running a MarcEdit Tasklist or an Alma Normalization Rule on a set of records
Today's Practical Cataloguing webinar is on "Enhancing metadata quality : a practical introduction to #MARC data cleaning using #Python and #RDA principles" with Dalia Kbar, Collection Development Librarian at the American University in Dubai.

Today in #metadata librarian land. I love it when MarcEdit saves me. I was toodling out a lil python script and remembered the MarcMerge. Did my task licksplittedly. I like programming but I like out of the box solutions way more.

My morning: spend 30 minutes writing a pymarc script to do something, it doesn't work, I get frustrated for a few minutes, and then realize I could have just done the thing with MarcEdit to begin with.

Wrangling with vendor-supplied #MARCrecords for a digitised archival collection of monographs, serials, manuscripts, transcripts etc using #MarcEdit
Why? To ensure correct fixed-field coding for resource-type mapping in our discovery layer; 'Other' is not a helpful resource-type! #MetadataMatters
