The first cooperative management service for libraries
OCLC WorldShare Management Services provide a Web-based environment that streamlines cataloging, acquisitions, license management and circulation and includes a next-gen discovery tool for library users—WorldCat Local. This makes workflows more efficient and enables libraries to share infrastructure costs and resources, as well as collaborate in ways that free them from the restrictions of local hardware and software.
Manage your licensed and electronic resources
License Manager moves subscriptions, access, licenses, and vendor and rights management to the network, enabling Webscale management, discovery and delivery of licensed and electronic resources.
It's more than just the software…
With Amlib you are not just purchasing state-of-the-art library management software—you are choosing a library management solution that involves the commitment from our entire team of Amlib specialists.
Metadata management solution
CBS has proven its value as a leading edge bibliographic utility for major library consortia around the world.
CBS offers a completely scalable approach to the building and maintenance of bibliographic databases. It can be configured to cater for multiple metadata types and formats (from MARC21 and UNIMARC to any other localised format).
CBS can be linked to WorldCat. This link (based on the SRU protocol) enables an instantaneous, bi-directional synchronisation of bibliographic data.
Library consortia implementing catalogues using CBS are viewed by OCLC as ‘partners’ with regular meetings convened between CBS partners and OCLC.
The leading access and authentication solution
EZproxy helps provide users with remote access to Web-based licensed content offered by libraries. It is an easy-to-setup and easy-to-maintain program. More than 2,500 institutions in over 60 countries have purchased EZproxy software.
Integrated library management tailored to your individual needs

OLIB now offers either a Web-based or a Microsoft-style Windows interface for library staff to utilise for both library housekeeping tasks and for searching. WebView is the OPAC, used by end-users for searching and self-service.
Resource evaluation, comparison and planning
WorldCat Collection Analysis is a Web-based service that provides analysis and comparison of library collections based on holdings information contained in the WorldCat database.
Integrated, automated materials selection
