Hi,
Another method could be to store MARC record as a blob. That's how many
library systems (including PHPMyLibrary) handles MARC data. However,
I'm
ignorant of the performance issues.
This is my opinion too. No problem with performances, I think.

Hi Aaron,
I'm not sure if this will solve your quoting problems, but instead of
rawdata() you could trying using the encode() method to serialize a
record
object
for insertion into a database field. You can then use decode() to get
the
record object back:
use MARC::File::USMARC;
# Serialize the current record
my $serialized = $record->MARC::File::USMARC::encode();
# De-serialize it into a MARC object
my $newrecord = MARC::File::USMARC::decode($serialized);
print $newrecord->title() . "\n";
