Btw I've updates the Fixes cheat sheet at our Wiki to reflect your question :)

I'm using catmandu to JSON-ise MARC records for storage in Elasticsearch, and seem to have come up with something that I can't readily see how to fix (without getting down and dirty with fixers.) I have a record that has this: ["650"," ","0","a","Time","v","Pictorial works","v","Juvenile literature.","9","15531"] and a mapping: marc_map('650v', 'subject.$append') This works well enough in most cases, however when the subfield is doubled up, I end up with: "subject":["Time","Pictorial worksJuvenile literature."] The $append doesn't seem to apply in this case. This only seems to happen to repeats within a field, other 650$v subfields are in their own strings, though suffer the same problem. Is this a bug in Catmandu-MARC? I've tried reading the marc_map.pl file, but the lack of internal documentation, and the nature of what it's doing make it not the easiest thing to understand. -- Robin Sheat Catalyst IT Ltd. ✆ +64 4 803 2204 GPG: 5FA7 4B49 1E4D CAA4 4C38 8505 77F5 B724 F871 3BDF
