    # USe owi to get recommended call number

This is fine if you’re a human picking through the XML, but if you have xpath then we can pull out the values you want easily.

(FIXME: my xpath on my Mac is lacks the common options of -q and -e, rather than pull data directly why not calc URL save as a column and let OpenRefine do the final fetch and retrieve of the call number recommendations)
