I am currently working on a similar task; converting DC records to MARC
for inclusion to our catalog.  Try checking out MarcEdit
(http://oregonstate.edu/~reeset/marcedit/html/index.php) this is a great
piece of software that allows you to do all sorts of things with a MARC
record.  Feel free to e-mail me privately if you want more specifics on
how I'm using MarcEdit to convert my records.

Thanks in advance for any help you can offer.

I've been assigned the task of figuring out how to convert Dublin Core 
records in the Connexion browser to MaRC (and probably back again).  I 
see a lot about standards and data entry information but nothing on 
moving records into an online catalog like that of ExLibris.  OCLC 
doesn't get into this kind of detail, as far as I can find.  Is there a 
book or web site I've missed on my quest that someone could suggest?
