[IUG] Automating MARC record output via Millennium ?

[James Bongiovanni <jimebong at temple dot edu>]

Hello all,

Pretty sure I know the answer to my question already but throwing it out on
the list just in case...

We're in the process of implementing Summon and looking at ways to automate
MARC record updating.  The hitch is that we made the decision in 2009 to go
"Millennium only" for create lists and no longer have that functionality in
our character-based system.

Unless I'm mistaken, we cannot use a script (e.g. Expect) to automate daily
MARC ouput to Serials Solutions without the create lists functionality in
character-based, correct?

Are there any "Millennium only" sites out there who've implemented Summon or
other discovery tool, and how do you go about updating your MARC record
data?

We do have Millennium scheduler but it doesn't handle date variables so its
not very useful for this task.

Thanks in advance for any info or advice,

Jim
