This specific case can be written as

   search([A,B], year of book, input_order, indomain_split, complete, []).

i.e. you give a list of books [A,B], and search on all the year-fields.

But generally, when you have more than one type of variable (e.g. year and 
cost), you should indeed first extract all those variables from your data 
structures into a big list, and use this list for search/6.

Stop right there!  Do not generate "clp code".  Generate only the input *data* 
you need, and use a *fixed* piece of ECLiPSe code to read that data and set up 
the constraints accordingly.

See for example http://eclipseclp.org/wiki/uploads/Examples/knapsack_ic.ecl
