@mzelesky How should we treat "Begin Publication Dates" like the following?
u
in the Begin Publication Date
, treat it as a 0
.9999
, it should not be includedHow much flexibility do we have in the report we're creating from Alma?
Right now, the ISBN column is delimited with semicolon space ('; '
), but when there is only one value, it ends with a colon (:
). We can deal with it if there's not an easy way to change it, but it would be lovely if it didn't have that colon.
We have very little flexibility in the report. The colon is most likely due to incorrect formatting of a cataloger's work (the colon often separates the ISBN in $a from the manifestation information in $b). Semicolons and spaces are how Alma concatenates fields.
@pdiskin is in touch with Gobi to see whether they can give us a connection via SFTP, rather than FTP.
YBP has enabled SFTP on the standard SFTP port.
