#1.  APIS ID (cu001, cu035)

a) Create standard APIS cu001 from Berkeley APIS ID integer, e.g.:

[APISID]   1
    becomes
cu001 | 1 | berkeley.apis.1

b) In addition,[APISID] is moved to cu035 in standard MARC format, e.g.,

cu035 | 1 | (CU)1

NB: "CU" is the standard LC symbol for University of California at Berkeley.

c) Create cu510_m "backlink" to Berkeley description by appending APIS ID to the end of the string:

     "http://128.32.97.216/scripts/idc/apis/apis2.idc?APISID="

e.g.,

    cu510_m | 1 | http://128.32.97.216/scripts/idc/apis/apis2.idc?APISID=1

             

#2. Items, Material, Size (cu300, cu655)

Combine Berkeley elements [Items], [Material] and [Size] to create cu300 field, as follows:

[Items]      1
[Material]   pap
[Size]       30.5 x 30.8 cm.

   becomes

cu300 | 1 | 1 papyrus ; 30.5 x 30.8 cm.

Note 1:  If Items > 1, material = "papyri"

Also create cu655 resource type entry based on the content of [Material] as follows:

#3.  ModernDate (cu245 / cuDate_1, cuDate_2)

1. Append "ModernDates" to the end of the cu245ab field, preceded by a comma-space, e.g.,

   [ModernDates]   "114/113 B.C."  
        becomes
   cu245 | 1 | [Type or Title], 114/113 B.C.
   
   
2. Also create normalized cuDate_1 and cuDate_2 (046 in Berkeley pre-processor) from [ModernDates], e.g.,
   
   pre-processor:     046 |b114|d113
   APIS DD:             cuDate_1 | 1 | -114
                  cuDate_2 | 1 | -113
   
   See full preprocessor script / conversion specification.

#4.  Language (cu545 / cuLCode)

1. Create cu545 Language note from [Language], e.g.,
   
   [Language]     Greek
        becomes
   cu545 | 1 | In Greek
   
   
2. Also create cuLCode value equivalent, e.g.,
   
   cuLCode | 1 | grc
   
   See full preprocessor script / conversion specification.
   

#5.  DDBDP Link

Assign DDBDP volume number according to the following scheme:





 DO CASE 
   CASE num < 267 vol = "1" 
   CASE num < 698 vol = "2" 
   CASE num < 825 vol = "3.1" 
   CASE num < 1094 vol = "3.2" 
   OTHERWISE vol = "4"                
 ENDCASE 

  [Publications]  P.Tebt., III.1031

     becomes

  cu510 | 1 | P.Tebt., III.1031

     and

  cu510_dd | 1 | P.Tebt.:3.2:1031

#6.  Image Linking

Pattern to create standard URLs from Berkeley image IDs is:

(1) url_path + (2) imageid + (3) [Image Type Code] + (4) [file extension]

1) URL Path:  "http://sunsite.berkeley.edu/APIS/PImages/"

2) Image ID:  See table of image links (from "tblLink3.mdb");
    Left pad image number with zeros to 5 characters

3) Code:  THUMB = D, SMALL = C, MEDIUM = B, LARGE = A

4) File extension:  D = ".gif" C, B, A = ".jpg"

EXAMPLE

Image ID = "566"

Image URL = "http://sunsite.berkeley.edu/APIS/PImages/AP00566aC.jpg"
