    Description:
    We want to create a new Test environment that consists of only a portion of our whole database. I've come up with a list of bib records that represent our collection, but I don't know how to get these exported. I was thinking of creating a temporary logical base that would pick up on these items.

    Resolution:
    If these bib records have ADM records attached to them (as they almost certainly do), creating a subset can be complicated.

    It would seem better to have the whole database in your Test environment: it would mirror Production more closely and you could be more certain that things which work on Test will work on Production.
