Description: # iacoll
        
        *iacoll* will collect all the item metadata for an Internet Archive collection
        and store it in a LevelDB database. The database is a key/value store where the
        key is the unique Internet Archive item identifier, and the value is the JSON
        for the item metadata.
        
        For example you can download the metadata for items in the University of
        Maryland's collection:
        
            % iacoll university_maryland_cp 
        
        By default *iacoll* will create the LevelDB database in a directory named with
        the item identifier. If you would like to control this you can explicitly pass
        it:
        
            % iacoll university_maryland_cp --db /path/to/my/leveldb/database
        
        When you run *iacoll* repeatedly it will look at the database and only fetch
        newer records. If an update ever fails you may want to force a full scan:
        
            % iacoll university_maryland_cp --fullscan
        
        If you would like to dump the metadata as line oriented JSON you can use --dump:
        
            % iacoll university_maryland_cp --dump > university_maryland_cp.jsonl
        
        ## Install
        
        To install *iacoll* you'll first need to install Python and then:
        
            pip install iacoll
