    Question

    Is there a way to export edit history for MARC records?

    Answer

    Edit history (the information Voyager keeps for MARC records, in the AUTH_/BIB_/MFHD_HISTORY tables) is not MARC data, so it will not be included in MARC records exported.  The date/time of most recent edit is in the MARC 005 field, as part of the MARC standard.

    If you want the BIB_HISTORY (etc.) data showing which operator saved each record and when, you could create an Access report and export that as an Excel file.
