Hello,

Hopefully the list is willing to entertain a naive question from a MARC 
and XML newbie. I'm trying to figure out the best way to store MARCXML 
records in a relational database, and am wondering if there are any 
standard database schemas out there for doing this. In particular I 
would like to avoid having to write database queries to replicate the 
functionality of CCL commands that search a particular set of MARC 
fields. I've found some limited info on the Library of Congress 
website, but nothing very helpful. If someone could point me in the 
right direction I would be most grateful.

Thanks,
Jacob Glenn
