1. Find the entry at the LOC database.
2. Go to the LCCN record..
3. Copy the address of the LCCN record
4. Run locurl2bib on that address from the command line (on Mac OS X: /Applications/Utilities/Terminal.app), for example enter:
locurl2bib http://lccn.loc.gov/91158031
Installation:
1. locurl2bib depends on bibutils by Chris Putnam. Place them into your exectuable path*.
2. Download locurl2bib and place it in your executable path. Since it's a shell script you can view its source by opening it in a text editor. Have fun looking up bib entries at the LOC!
*On Mac OS X you will want to place the files into /usr/local/bin, and you can open this folder by pressing CMD-SHIFT-G in Finder and typing its address.
