Why would anyone want to use LOC anyway?  It's only advantage over any of the
70 or 80 university libraries available by modem is that it tends to have
the very latest books about 7 or 8 weeks before the libraries get 'em.
Otherwise, the University of California's MELVYL system (Telnet 31.1.0.11)
islight years more user friendly and downloads just fine.
