Notes |
Chose not to use vendor records because: not OCLC records, many duplicate records, URLs not consistent or even present, appeared to be a hodgepodge of records from a variety of sources. Instead, extracted ISBNs from set and used MarcEdit / Z39.50 method to collect OCLC records for loading. Processed each collection separately. When a title is in more than one collection, added separate getURLs for each collection it appears in. |
