Are there any implications to getting monthly MARC record updates from the knowledge base?

Answer

Because MARC records can be updated multiple times in a month when you set your MARC record delivery setting to Monthly you may miss some changes. Additionally, MARC records will likely be delivered in an update file vs. a new file.

The MARC record that is delivered will be the one available on the last Saturday of the month when the file is created. You will not get the updates that occurred earlier in the month and were altered before then.

The Record output and timing help page contains additional information about record delivery frequency.
