Terry,
You may recall my previous message (below ) re converting EAD to MARC. I
updated to 6 but am wondering if the system is still using the old
stylesheet (EADlitetoMARC21slimXML_schema_local_name) that you sent me, as
I am still missing those elements noted below and I can still see this
stylesheet in the XSLT directory. It's there along with a few other
options,
-EADlitetoMARC21slimXML
-EADlitetoMARC21slimXML_schema
-EADtoMARC21slimXML
Should I somehow enable one of these? I also realize I am missing 1xx's
and wondered if that could be for the same reason, or perhaps because they
are nested differently in my files (within
bioghist/chronlist/chronitem/eventgrp/event/origination).
Your assistance is most appreciated,
Anne-Marie H. Viola
