dummy items on full-text periodicals bibs

Miriam,

Have you tried making a smart key and work from Review File to update
your list?  It is wonderful and fast.

Thank you,

We have about 2500 bibs for full-text periodicals which we want to
display in the catalog.

Because we still use the text interface for our in-house catalog users,
we want to attach a dummy item to each of these bibs --location
"Electronic Resource" and Call # "Available on the Web" so that the
inhouse users will know what it is they are seeing. 

We cannot find any way to attach an item to a whole list of bibs other
than one-by-one. The help desk says yes, it must be done one bib at a
time. No way to tell the system, "do this to all the bibs in this list."
Nor can they see why we might find that answer un-helpful.

We would appreciate suggestions for how to accomplish this without 2500
separate manual acts of attachment. 

I did try the archive. Perhaps I asked for the wrong thing, but I
couldn't find any helpful hints.

Thank you.
