NAME MARC::Field::Normalize::NACO - Matching normalization for MARC::Field SYNOPSIS use MARC::Field; use MARC::Field::Normalize::NACO; my $field = MARC::Field->new( '100', ' ', ' ', a => 'Stephenson, Neal,', d => '1953-'); my $normalized = $field->as_naco; my $custom = $field->as_naco(subfields => 'a'); DESCRIPTION MARC::Field::Normalize::NACO turns MARC::Field objects into strings canonicalized into NACO format. This makes them suitable for matching against an index of similarly normalized fields. The principal means of invoking is through the as_naco() method that the module injects into MARC::Field when loaded. A string is returned. This method takes an optional named parameter, subfields. The value of this parameter should be something that fits nicely into the regex qr/[$subfields]/, typically a range of letters. The default value is "a-z68".
