Download the frequently requested databases and vendor records list

OCLC works on behalf of its members to partner with content providers in order to deliver access to as much library-provided content as possible through the WorldCat Local service. This list represents the databases and vendor records requested most often by our members.

WorldCat local vendor records are those records a WorldCat Local subscriber has licensed (usually in conjunction with associated content) for use in its catalog. Publishers of these records have restricted redistribution of the records by libraries to other sources, including OCLC. OCLC contacts publishers on behalf of WorldCat Local libraries to obtain agreements for the addition of vendor records already licensed by these libraries to WorldCat.

Send us your content requests

OCLC would like to hear from you about other databases you would like to access through WorldCat Local's single search. Please send your suggestions to publishing@oclc.org. Publishers interested in increasing the visibility of their content should contact OCLC Publisher Relations at publishing@oclc.org.
