Please post information to list.  I am also very interested.  We are
migrating to Millennium and I had hope to be able to pull CONSER patterns
from OCLC records (based on ISSN match) and batch load into our
system.   But initial information I have is that OCLC cannot provide
pattern information for batch load --- while we can load patterns into
Millennium by searching OCLC and loading patterns one at a time.

By the way if I have any of this wrong -- PLEASE correct me.  I am a
beginner at using publications patterns from 891's and eager to learn.
