WorldCat.org
Special offerHow do we love summer? Let us count the ways… Add an online component to your Summer Reading Program with WorldCat.org.
WorldCat.org lets 2.5 million users a month connect to materials in local WorldCat libraries. A unique benefit your library enjoys when it participates in WorldCat, WorldCat.org is a Web portal to the WorldCat global catalog with a supporting program of data syndication that makes your library's collection discoverable virtually anywhere on the Web. WorldCat.org allows more people outside the traditional library environment to find your reliable information and assistance through the Web sites they use every day. Information about your library's holdings and online services is actively spread across the Web via strategic partnerships with key sites such as Google and Yahoo!, as well as by social and distributed Web technologies that appeal to users, other information providers and e-business. The result: WorldCat.org brings more information seekers to your catalog and services by way of major search engines; bookselling, bibliography and social networking sites; online content providers; browser toolbars; personalized home pages and other popular Web applications. Your local resources gain a global presence, become part of people's normal Web workflow and get in front of the increasing numbers of people who rely almost exclusively on the Internet. |
