These instructions describe how to download and link to auction pricelists. Bibliographic records are created for each catalog received and include a link to a PDF version of the pricelist, whether or not a pricelist exists. We have links to pricelists for sales held from December 2009-present. The attachment (link at bottom) is a copy of these instructions including Millennium Global Update screenshots.
