[DCRM-L] OCLC's Local Holdings Records

[David Richtmyer]

Like Will, I too would like to see one of these LHR's in the Connexion
browser. I just did two separate command line searches on (figuring that
this would at least get me into the ballpark) ti:opera and ti:omnia and
li:hhg or li:mnu. I did get lots of results, from both Minnesota and
Houghton, but not one result came with a Local Holdings Record. Here at BC
we do not use LHR's; I'm wondering if that forbids us to look at others?
