Web scale through WorldCat.orgOCLC and The Combined Regions have been working together to load the UnityUK union catalogue into the WorldCat database. As a result, your library's holdings can be made available on the open web, and accessible through Google and Yahoo, as well as through Worldcat.org. This means that the public will be able to search and view holdings of UnityUK libraries and beyond—for free from anywhere. The WorldCat.org interface offers the public features they have come to expect from other favoured book sites including lists, reviews and other types of evaluative content, including cover art. Approximately 100,000 visits a month to WorldCat.org come from the UK who start their quest for materials at Google and other search engines. Nearly 15% of those result in a visit to the library's OPAC. The addition of up-to-date UnityUK holdings will provide these users with a significantly enhanced experience. |
