[Evergreen-catalogers] Vandelay stripping out ends of fields, odd diacritics

[Tina Ji]

Hi Janet,


Sounds similar to my recent case. After loading a file I noticed some  
records without title. The titles had Japanese characters in MARCEdit.  
I recompiled the file with MARCEdit using encoding UTF8. It worked.
