Thanks, that's got the records to correct. Now I need to add the corrected records to the records from the source file which had 130 tags. (Apologies, I've never used the Export selected records feature before)

Cheers,
Chris

Subject: Re: [MARCEDIT-L] Fix incorrect 008 coding in authority records-How?

Hi Chris,

I would extract the records missing a 130 $a into a separate file and use a regex to replace the 008/12-13. The tool is in Tools>Select MARC Records>Extract Selected Records. Import the file using the 130 $a as display field, then search for "display field not found" to extract those records into a separate file.

Shelley
