Merging Files

We have separate libraries for each year's history. In order to perform inquiries across multiple years rather than multi-defining each PF in the program (which, honestly, is what I have been doing), I would like to read them as a single file.
These tables have the same identical layout (fields, format names, file names); just in different libraries. I tried using a multiple format LF but, naturally, it blew off because the record format names are the same.
Is there any way to read these two physical files via a single file statement, or am I just spinning my wheels in the sand here?
