Yet even more metadata mapping

OW! My brain hurts! I transferred everything to a spreadsheet and added another field, BibClass index, since I realized we'll need to know what indexes should be called (if, indeed, we'll be able to add new ones). I emailed Jenn Riley at Indiana to ask some questions and see if they'd be willing to share the scripts and bib.map they used. She might not have been the right person to ask - hopefully she'll be willing to forward it on to the right person(s) if that's the case. I hope they'll be able to help. I don't know why I've been so reluctant to ask for their help, things might have gone a lot smoother and faster if I had done so sooner (or not, I guess we'll never know).

Oh, for there to be ONE metadata standard and format that would miraculously work for everything...!

I'll do more this weekend and send everything to Cassandra and Andrew to see what they think, and what the next step is.
