Converting Word Bibliographic Records To Xml

Contributor(s): THL Staff.

This page describes the process for converting a group of Word bibliographic tables into a group of XML files. Each Word file contains a single table with the bibliographic information for one text in it. The group of Word files representing a volume's worth of texts or some part thereof can be converted together in mass.

To perform the conversion, one must first download and set up the conversion environment. Then, perform the conversion. Then, check/edit the results. Therefore, these instructions will be in three parts:

1. Setting up the Word to XML Bibliographic Converter
2. Performing a Conversion of Bibliographic Records
3. Checking Converted Bibliographic Records
4. VCR Converter Issues
