You have two options (on easier than the other). First, searching LCCN
as the search key will be @attr 1=9. So, with that in mind -- here are
your two options:
Easiest:
1) Have a file where each lccn is separated by a new line (see attached,
lccn1.txt)
2) Custom == enter: @attr 1=9
3) Search Types == Select US Library of Congress (make sure it is
highlighted)
Then search
More work
1) have a file where lccn & attr are combined and separated by new line
(see attached, lccn2.txt)
2) Select Custom -- leave box blank
3) Select U.S. Library of Congress (make sure highlighted)
Then search
--TR
