All,
Anyone else submitting records to HathiTrust/Google via Zephir? We recently had a record rejected (OCLC # 56437757, for what that's worth) because of a bad Leader. The Zephir diagnostic looks like this:
bad line: <marc:record><marc:leader>01380&#xbf;amÆ°a2200361 a 450Ì</marc:leader> yaz_marc_read_xml failed
When we opened the record in MarcEdit, we saw that LDR Position 05 was not a single character, but {BF} (whatever that means). We tried manually changing this string to "c" and re-compiling the record into MARC, but this didn't seem to work. Then we tried overwriting the copy of the record in our catalog with the OCLC version, reconverting it to XML, and resending it to the HathiTrust folks.
The record was again flagged as having a bad Leader, but this time the diagnostic looks slightly different:
bad line: <marc:record><marc:leader>01750&#xbf;amÆ°a2200433 a 450Ì</marc:leader> yaz_marc_read_xml failed
Does anyone have any experience with odd characters somehow making their way into Leaders?
Thanks,
Jeff
