Hi all,

I'm working with a large set of electronic records. Most have the correct field 300 subfield a information, but some don't. For example:

=300  \\$a220 pages :$bportrait

How would I go about making this look more like:
=300  \\$a1 online resource (220 pages) :b$portrait
?

I guess I would want to put whatever is currently in the subfield a in parentheses and then add the 1 online resource wording in front of it. 

I'm not sure how this would be done using regex.

Thank you.
