Allow users to send file of ISBNs through a webform to return symphony hits. 
Maybe return, ckey, title, author etc.

Worked with @scanedastanford to figure out if we can do this using BC Analytics. You can enter many ISBN's into a search field for Bib Marc Subfield Data, using a semi-colon to separate them. She setup up a report in Shared Report > Acquisitions > ISBN search. Unfortunately, if the 020 field has data that are not numbers, such as,

9789895437412 (v. 2)
9789897542336 (v. 1)

A search for 9789897542336;9789895437412 doesn't bring up the record.
