It would be our first step to a full support of FRBR : biblio(items) containing only "basic" information, that are absolutely required everywhere and that should not require any meta-data decoding while the biblio_metadata would contain the raw record. The metadata_type telling how it must be accessed.
And in particular, what I have in mind is that metadata_type would represent the applicable schema (and perhaps serialization), e.g., for what Koha supports now, the list of metadata types would be something like: marc21-marcxml unimarc-marcxml normarc-marcxml Regards, Galen -- Galen Charlton Manager of Implementation Equinox Software, Inc. / The Open Source Experts email: gmc@esilibrary.com direct: +1 770-709-5581 cell: +1 404-984-4366 skype: gmcharlt web: http://www.esilibrary.com/ Supporting Koha and Evergreen: http://koha-community.org & http://evergreen-ils.org
