The function new_from_xml() should work without filehandle I think. I'm
pulling a bunch of MARCXML records from a database and the code looks like
this:
while ( my $row = $sth->fetchrow_hashref() ) {
my $marcxml = $row->{'marcxml'};
my $record = MARC::Record->new_from_xml( $marcxml, 'UTF-8' );
...
}
