These questions may be more appropriate to another list, so if you have any suggestions as to where they should be re-directed, I'd appreciate it. I have 2 questions regarding sending z39.50 queries to the worldcat z39.50 server. 1. Using yaz or the perl z3950 module, is there any way to get the server to return a record that contains ALL holdings for a particular record, not just the holdings for the state in which the querying library is located? For example, if I use YAZ to send a query to the worldcat server and request a return in usmarc, the record has a single 948 field that shows me the holdings for all libraries in Texas. Is there a way to get a record that contains all holdings? 2. How do you do a z39.50 search, using YAZ or the perl module, for a specific oclc number? I can't figure out the syntax.
