[DCRM-L] Latin Place Names

[Robert Maxwell]

No, no earlier document exists. The site was designed as it is now.

Erin,

The answer to your question is No. The LPN site was migrated (by me) html-to-html from the BYU site where Bob Maxwell built it in the first place. I don't know if earlier versions of the site existed in some sort of document, but if so, that document would be woefully out of date by now.

Does anyone know if there is a version of the RBMS/BSC Latin Place Names File as a single document rather than the 20+ html pages at http://rbms.info/lpn/?

I'm hoping to semi-automate adding Hierarchical Place Names (MARC 752) to legacy records, and am hoping to be able to match data in the 260 against a structured list.

Alternatively, I can ask my assistant to copy-and-paste the table from each HTML page into Excel, but she's bigger than I am, and could easily beat me up.

Thanks,

Erin.
