[OPEN-ILS-GENERAL] Network errors when attempting z39.50 imports

[Raymond Norton]

Thank you.

I am able to do a basic search now and need to do a test record import 
into our new system. I am not seeing the command to do this in the text 
file.

What would the syntax be to import the following record from my search 
at library.usc.edu?


"650  0 $a Holocaust, Jewish (1933-1945) $z Germany."
