Description
Data format marcUwe Reh Since VuFind and most other discovery systems, are well prepared to handle marc, this format should be the default.
Deletions(Perhaps it is standard feature of OAI) The interface should deliver deleted and blocked titles/items as:
  • titles as deletion event
  • items as update event
Invisible dataSometimes a title or an item needs to be visual for the staff but not to the patrons. This data should be ignored by the interface.
Item information

OAI server currently injects special 9xx fields into the MARC records containing things like suppression status, item details, etc. I would suggest that, if that standard meets our needs, we should try to use it consistently to reduce confusion/configuration.

Note: Shouldn't this information not be covered by edge/mod_rtac?
