Here is the code I use to search articles in WCL
Thanks for any help!

Planned downtime for WorldCat APIs on September 18
On Sunday, September 18 there will be a scheduled service downtime for the WorldCat Search API and WorldCat Basic API service from 1:00 a.m.
until at least 8:00 a.m. Eastern time (-4 GMT). This temporary service interruption is required so we can upgrade software that supports the WorldCat API.
