Partner programs for ILS vendors

Vendors of Integrated Library Systems can work with OCLC to ensure compatibility with our services via our Local System Vendor Access Program.

ILS vendor mailing list

ILS vendors can join our free mailing list to receive notification of technical bulletins, new publications concerning the output of MARC records, and new export methods for OCLC cataloging records. Notifications are by e-mail and postal mail.

Join the list >>

Note: An individual vendor can place up to two contacts on the LSVAP mailing list. Please include full postal mailing address and e-mail address for each contact.

Cataloging records for ILS testing

For a fee, ILS vendors can download up to 1,000 WorldCat records via a cataloging interface for software testing, to ensure local system compatibility with OCLC-MARC records.

Contact OCLC to learn more >>
