MARC to BIBFRAME conversion and reconciliation with Work and Hub data

The dataset includes data used for the MARC-to-BIBFRAME conversion, as well as code developed and used for reconciling BIBFRAME Work and Hub data with the Library of Congress BIBFRAME database.

The dataset is organized into three ZIP files: MARC, BIBFRAME, and Work-Reconciliation.
The MARC and BIBFRAME ZIP files each contain three sets of records: Concerto (86 records), Hamlet (8,678 records), and Local (237 records).

The Work-Reconciliation ZIP file includes the following components:
1. reconcileWorks.py: a script that adds links to BIBFRAME records generated using the marc2bibframe2 tool
2. README.md: documentation describing how to run the script, required inputs, and the methodology for selecting links from Library of Congress search results
3. requirements.txt: a list of Python dependencies required to execute the script
4. notes.txt: supplementary notes on converting MARCXML to BIBFRAME using marc2bibframe2, including input requirements and setup considerations
