NOTE: MARCXML extractor is not yet available in public Wandora distribution package.
MARCXML is a file format used to transfer and store library data. MARCXML standard is developed by The Library of Congress' Network Development and MARC Standards Office. Wandora's MARCXML extractor converts MARCXML files to topic maps. Extractor starts with menu option File > Extract > Bibliographical > MARCXML extractor....
Use example
User selects File > Extract > Bibliographical > MARCXML extractor... to start Wandora's MARCXML extractor.
Wandora opens up a dialog. User selects Url tab and enters url http://www.loc.gov/standards/marcxml/xml/collection.xml to the text area. Then user clicks Extract button.
After extraction a log window remains open.
User closes log window and opens up a created MARC topic in the left topic tree. Below MARC user opens up topic Record (MARC), and below that the first record topic. Record topics represent library entities expressed with MARCXML.
By default Wandora doesn't resolve base name nor subject identifier for the record topic. One could say, a record is defined entirely by association.
User opens up topic Field (MARC) and a list of MARCXML fields is opened. MARCXML fields are used as association type in Topic Maps conversion.
User opens field topic 245 - Title Statement (NR) and Wandora views all associations of type 245 - Title Statement (NR).
Association type's subject identifier is an URI that resolves a WWW page of Library of Congress' MARC documentation describing the field type.
