Import Records (Records Numbers Only) (Create Lists)

The Import Records feature is used to import record numbers into a review file in Sierra.  The records numbers need to be saved in a file with a .txt or .csv extension. Use Notepad, or save the file as txt with Word. No other file extension will work for this process.  This will work for Bibliographic, Item, and Patron record numbers.
