Abstract
The Systems Team at the National Library of Scotland have been exploring a new approach to describing physical and digital manifestations of the same work. Utilising the Alma API and the Pymarc Python Library to extract key MARC21 fields from the bibliographic record of the physical manifestation, we have been experimenting with distinct MARC21 bibliographic records for digitised manifestations, to be delivered to users via digital representations. This presentation will outline the reasoning behind this; the creation of a set of these ‘Digibibs’ from ‘Physbib’ data; and the process of testing their effectiveness as an access route for users.
