amendment - I did a count of the number of 863 fields in the original
MARC XML record, and there are 2276 occurrences (this is because there
are duplicate barcodes for each of the folders with each of the boxes
in the collection, which I'd need to de-dup)

however, only 1339 of these 863 fields show up in the converted .mrk file...

again, anyone with an inkling why this would happen, please let me know  :)
thanks!
