Here's an extremely abbreviated code snippet that might help.  You'll
need to gather appropriate values to fill in, add some error checking,
etc.

use MARC::Record;
use MARC::Charset qw(marc8_to_utf8);
use ZOOM;

$zconn = new ZOOM::Connection($zhost, $zport, databaseName => $zdbnm);
$zconn->option(preferredRecordSyntax => "usmarc");
$zrs = $zconn -> search_pqf("\@attr 1=1007 $ean");
$nr = $zrs -> size();
$marc = new_from_usmarc MARC::Record($zrs -> record($i) -> raw());

Hi there is also Z39.50 support in Catmandu

https://metacpan.org/pod/Catmandu::Importer::Z3950

e.g. To fetch marc you can do:

$ catmandu convert Z3950 --host z3950.loc.gov --port 7090 --databaseName 
Voyager --query "(title = dinosaur)" to MARC

a Perl api is included.

Here is a link to a simple (read, “rudimentary”) Z39.50 search interface:

  http://sites.nd.edu/emorgan/2013/11/fun/

But I’m sure your mileage will vary.

If you are comfortable with Perl, then I suggest you play with Yaz/Zoom:
