Save, Print or Email

record at a time.
The formats for printing, saving and emailing are based on a combination
of the
MARC and Labelled display.
Important Information about MARC Records

software to view.
Two versions of MARC are available: non-Unicode/MARC-8 and Unicode/UTF-8.
To Save an Authority Record in MARC format:
- Next to "Select Download Format" make sure that either MARC (non-Unicode/MARC-8) or MARC (Unicode/UTF-8) is selected.

(supply a new filename for the record).
Note: While it may appear that it is possible to
Email MARC records, it is not. If a MARC format is selected in the drop-down menu, and you choose to email, it will be received
in the standard text format.
