I’m exporting records from my library’s version of WorldCat Local (i.e., WorldCat.org). Diacritics are preserved when I export records individually, but if I export a set of records from a saved list, the diacritics do not display properly.
See attached examples of the same item exported individually (“right”) and as part of a list (“wrong”).
Has anyone else noticed this? Is there anything to do about it?
Sorry, I should have specified that I was doing a direct export from the web browser.
However, I just tried downloading the records as an RIS file and importing it with the UTF-8 option for text translation. Alas, the diacritics are still not displaying properly.
I’ve attached the respective RIS files as .txt files (we can’t attach .ris in this forum).
I’ve written to WorldCat to see if they could explain whether the lists vs. individual records have a different structure in some way, but I haven’t heard anything back.
Again, the diacritics don’t display properly even if I save the RIS file for the multiple records and import with UT-8 encoding.
