We are trying to convert 853-863 marc holdings in III Milenium. Has anyone found a way to extract that in marc format? While we have the informaiton in 2 separate files we would like to extract that directly so that we can update that once a year with OCLC. We are trying to work with marcedit software, but it is quite a lot of work to merge separate files, so if anyone has found a simpler way to deal with this issue I would be so appreciative.
