Bug Description
The maintain_
001 ocm12345678
001 ocm12345678
003 OCoLC
The end result would be
001 $EGBIBID
003 $OU
... and no 035.
While this is an example of GIGO -- the 001 field is not repeatable -- simply dropping existing identifiers is not an optimal result. Better would be to either not change the record at all or to just willy-nilly copy the old 001s/003s into 035 fields, even when there are more than one 001 field.
