sudoc-sru

Search and retrieve bibliographic records from the Sudoc catalogue, the French academic union catalogue covering all higher education and research libraries in France. Use this skill whenever the user wants to find books, theses, serials, manuscripts, or any document held in a French university library; resolve a PPN or ISBN; look up French academic theses; search by author, title, subject, publisher, collection, or shelf mark; or count records matching a bibliographic query. Trigger on keywords like "sudoc", "catalogue universitaire français", "thèse française", "bibliothèque universitaire", "PPN", "UNIMARC", "fonds documentaire", "notices bibliographiques", or any request to search French academic holdings. Also use it when the user wants to know whether a document is held in French academic libraries, or needs UNIMARC metadata for a French publication.
