Exporting ISBN numbers from Libronix

I know that Rick Brannan has a little script on his blog that allows you to get the ISBN numbers out of your Libronix Bibliography. However, as he himself comments there, it doesn't limit itself to the books you own, but pulls up everything that your Libronix installation recognizes.

I was trying to get my Father-in-law's collection listed completely in LibraryThing, but of the 219 Libronix resources he owns, the scrip generated 835 resources! Anyone know of another way to get this information? Anyone know if this feature is being added to the bibliography export options for V.4?

Anyone know if this feature is being added to the bibliography export options for V.4?

Strictly speaking I don't believe you'll hear anything about V4 on this board. Bob might chime in here with some information, but other than dropping rare hints the official channels at Logos aren't talking about it.

As for exporting ISBN's....

I don't use Library thing anymore but I seem to recall that you could run a MARC Refer-BibIX or Bibtex bibliography of unlocked resources and upload it to LibraryThing for import.

Maybe a LT fan could verify my faulty memory on this.

Just curious - why do you no longer use Library Thing? Found something better?

Ray, I ran out of space in my free account - and once I realized that it did nothing I needed I wasn't about to fork over the cash to expand it.

I never could see much value in posting my holdings for everyone to see. Why should I do that? Are they going to ask to borrow the book (It doesn't work in Logos).
