Next Steps for WorldCat Discovery and FirstSearch

Participants heard about OCLC's plans to develop a new version of FirstSearch with the full-featured searching of WorldCat required by many researchers and library staff. This search functionality will also be available to WorldCat Discovery subscribers. The new version of FirstSearch will have the same look and feel of today’s WorldCat Discovery, so gaining familiarity with WorldCat Discovery now will support a smooth transition to the new version of FirstSearch when it is released.

Participants were introduced to WorldCat Discovery and guidance for setting up their library’s WorldCat Discovery site.
