The three (Perl) modules described below look pretty cool, as well as kewl
-- an interface to read/write MODS, an interface to interact with Fedora
Commons, an interface to convert data from one thing to another. I can see
how these can be useful tools in some of my work. Thank you. --Eric Lease

Yes, they are !
I've cced this mail to my colleague that wrote MARC::Transform, because
both tools could interract.
I also suggested him to see if it would be possible/a good idea to also
be able to store the results into Koha ILS directly. That would be very
helpfull to migrate datas from to Koha ;-)
(note that he's in vacation for now, so you won't probably get any
feedback before september)

LibreCat
-=-=-=-=
LibreCat is an open collaboration of the university libraries of Lund,
Ghent, and Bielefeld to create tools for library and research services.
One of the toolkits we provide is called 'Catmandu'
(http://search.cpan.org/~nics/Catmandu-0.5004/lib/Catmandu.pm) which is
a suite of tools to do ETL processing on library data. We provide tools
to import data via JSON, YAML, CSV, MARC, SRU, OAI-PMH and more. To
transform this data we created a small DSL language that librarians use
in our institutions. Also we make it very easy to store the results in
MongoDB, ElasticSearch, Solr or export it into various formats.
We create also command line tools because we felt that in our daily jobs
we were creating the same type of adhoc Perl scripts over and over for
endless reports.
E.g. to create a CSV file of all titles in a MARC export we say something
like:
$ catmandu convert MARC to CSV --fix 'marc_map(245,title);
retain_field(record);' records.mrc
To get all titles from our institutional repository we say:
$ catmandu convert OAI --url http://biblio.ugent.be/oai to JSON --fix
'retain_field(title)'
To store a MARC export into a MongoDB we do:
$ catmandu import MARC to MongoDB --database_name mydb --bag data
records.mrc
Here is a blog post about the commands that are available:
http://librecat.org/catmandu/2013/06/21/catmandu-cheat-sheet.html
See our project page for more information about LibreCat and Catmandu :

and a tutorial how to work with the API

MODS::Record
-=-=-=-=-=-=
In one of our Catmandu projects we created a Perl connector for Fedora
Commons (http://search.cpan.org/~hochsten/Catmandu-FedoraCommons-0.24).
One of our goals was to integrate better with the Islandora project. For
this we needed a Perl MODS parser. As there was no module available on
CPAN we provide a top level module like MARC::Record called MODS::Record
http://search.cpan.org/~hochsten/MODS-Record-0.05/lib/MODS/Record.pm. I
hope this will be of some help for the community. If there are coders
here who would like to contribute to the MODS package please drop me a
line. I think CPAN MODS support shouldn't be dependent on one coder, one
institution.
Greetings from a sunny Belgium,
Patrick
