Has anyone tried to make use of the Baker & Taylor approval program tapes?
It is my understanding that the records on these tapes are not full MARC
records, so I am wondering if it is worth the effort to load them if the
cataloging staff is going to be required to overlay with complete records
at a later time.

I would be interested in any comments regarding this product.

Thanks.
