Update: RLG Union Catalog-WorldCat Integration
OCLC has completed Phase 1 of the RLG Union Catalog integration into WorldCat. Phase 1 involved matching all RLG Union Catalog primary cluster records against WorldCat and adding new WorldCat Master Records for titles in the RLG Union Catalog not already represented in WorldCat. Holdings have not yet been added.
In this first phase, OCLC processed a total of 50.4 million records and added 7.8 million new master records.
The Status: RLG Union Catalog Integration into WorldCat page has been updated with the complete set of statistics from Phase 1.
