I think your functional requirement that made this non-trivial was
your mention of it needing ILL functionality.
There's a definite threshold that has to be crossed before you start
seeing something like that integrated into the ILS.
If you've got some other way to deal with ILL, I'd suggest Open
You know, with Jonathan's rephrasing (if it's accurate), it crossed my
mind that most ILSes that support course reserves should be able to
handle this.
It's extremely common for course reserves to belong to the instructor
that is putting them on reserve and the ILS would need to keep track
of that

I have nothing really much to offer with regard to MARC.pm and its

Alex,
I think the problem is data like this:

And while we can probably figure out a pattern to get the semantics
out this record, there is no telling how many other variations exist
within our collections.
So we've got lots of this data that is both hard to
But... then I'd have to talk to a human being!

No, that's expected behavior (and how it's always been). You'd need
to do reader.rewind to put your enumerator cursor back to 0 to run
back over the records.
It's basically an IO object (since that's what it expects as input)
and behaves like one.
