NAME

MARC::Detrans::Names - A set of non-standard authority mappings

SYNOPSIS

use MARC::Detrans::Names
my $names = MARC::Detrans::Names->new();
$names->addName( 
    from => '$aNicholas $bI, $cEmperor of Russia, $d1796-1855',
    to  => '$a^[(NnIKOLAJ^[s, $bI, $c^[(NiMPERATOR^[s ^[(NwSEROSSIJSKIJ^[s, $d1796-1855'
);

DESCRIPTION

Often times personal names are transliterated in non-standard ways, so in order to get back to the original script it's necessary to have non-standard mappings. MARC::Detrans::Names allows you to map the transliterated name back to it's original.

METHODS

new()

addName()

You must pass in a MARC::Detrans::Name object that you want to have added to the names mapping.

convert()

Pass in a MARC::Field object and you'll get back an array ref of modified subfield data which could be used to create a new field. If there is no mapping for a particular MARC::Field then you'll get back undef.
