Python-based webservice that receives an Alma mms_id or an item barcode and produces a string that contains the bibliographic record and items. the string could have one of three formats:

• xml ( MARCXML) , or
• marcedit ( terry reese's marcEdit application), or
• text ( bernardo gomez format).

example:

https://kleene.library.emory.edu/cgi-bin/get_alma_record?doc_id=990024996580302486&format=marcedit

https://kleene.library.emory.edu/cgi-bin/get_alma_record?item_id=010002975279 ( item_id = barcode)

Files:

• get_alma_record.py , the main script;
• get_alma_record.cfg , the configuration file.

get_alma_record retrieves bibliographic and holding information from ALMA via ALMA API requests. the item information is displayed as a "999" MARC field.
