New OCLC Batch Services Documentation Available
OCLC has recently made new documentation available regarding matching bibliographic records against WorldCat for the purpose of adding or deleting holdings symbols, adding, replacing or deleting institution records or for enriching WorldCat via batch processing.
While the new document does not provide a detailed description of each of the comparisons that are made, it summarizes the overall process and includes a list of MARC elements used in matching.
To view the document, go to Matching Records when Batchloading to WorldCat.
