Hi Glen,

If you have someone on staff comfortable with MARC::Record this is a simple
thing to do with PLPERL as a function.  In fact I'd say this is a good
really simple one for someone to cut their teeth on if they were learning
and the kind of thing I was going to do in the preconference.  Depending on
how things work out I may still do something like it for the virtual
conference.

As always caveat auctor (writer beware) - use a test server first, test
carefully, etc...
