Not related to your question, but to your workflow: You do not have to export records from OCLC in UTF-8. You can configure the Connexion export to be MARC-8. Go to Tools > Options > Export. Click the Record Characteristics button. You can set the Character Set to MARC-8 or to UTF-8 Unicode.

Subject: [MARCEDIT-L] MarcEdit impact on 005 field
Hello:
My library is currently having many issues with diacritics displaying incorrectly in BiblioCommons.
We are currently using Horizon 7.5.5.
Because of Horizon's inability to support UTF8-- we must export OCLC records using UTF8 and then run the records through MarcEdit and import into Horizon using MARC8.
It's a cumbersome process.
We thought this was addressing the problem but we are still seeing incorrect diacritics in BiblioCommons.
Our IT person screen captured the 005 in MarcEdit for several of the records run through MarcEdit: the 005 seems to update/change; however, when the record is finally loaded into Horizon, the 005 'reverts' back to the original 005 from the OCLC record.
My question to you: can you explain why the 005 changes in the MarcEdit process? Because this 'change' is really hidden down the line so to speak, could it have any implications for how they 'system' is reading the record?
Thank you very much for your time,
Grace Rempel
