Loop through a set of Worldcat ids and download metadata for each

Description

This python script will loop through a set of Worldcat ids, download metadata for each id, and store full xml values in sqlite format (datastore.db) for later parsing. If the daily key limit is reached, the script will terminate and, the next time you run it, the script will look for Worldcat ids in the database and skip them if present. Therefore, the intended way to run this script is as a daily cron job until data is downloaded for every id.
