1 New marc_export --descendants option
2 ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
4 The marc_export script has a new option, --descendants. This option
5 takes one argument of an organizational unit shortname. It works much
6 like the existing --library option except that it is aware of the
7 org. tree and will export records with holdings at the specified
8 organizational unit and all of its decendants. This is handy if you
9 want to export the records for all of the branches of a system. You
10 can do that by specifying this option and the system's shortname,
11 instead of specifying multiple --library options for each branch.
13 The --descendants option can be repeated, as the --library option can.
14 All of the specified org. units and their descendants will be included
15 in the output. It can also be combined with individual --library
16 options when necessary.
