Dave, thanks for your answer!,

so I think that I need, as you say, a batch load MARC-XML records (but
without digital objects, that will be added in the "ongoing subsmission"
that should be the result of the batch process) into DSpace.. I will read
again the Chapter 2 of the DSpace manual.. I know now that I don't need to
transform the record to Dublin Core (-:
