Dear hive-mind,

Does anyone know why the Library of Congress-supplied MARCXML to MODS XSLT [1] 
does not handle the MARC 590 Local Notes field? It seems to handle everything 
else, not that I've done an exhaustive search... :) 

Granted, I could copy/create my own XSLT and add this functionality in myself, 
but I'm curious as to whether or not there's some logic behind this decision to 
not include it. Logic that I would not naturally understand since I'm not 
formally trained as a librarian. 

Thanks!
