Description

This mapping gives equivalencies between MARC and MODS data elements, but is not intended to be a crosswalk that allows for bi-directional conversions without some loss of data. Where multiple MARC elements are indicated for a single MODS element, if converted to MODS and then converted back to MARC, some specificity would be lost since some elements cannot be converted back to the same element from which they originated. This document is intended for use in converting MARC 21 bibliographic records to MODS. Some data elements from associated holdings records are also included under the section about mapping MARC 21 holding... 'Introduction'
