Holdings Maintenance with Batchloads

Get Your Holdings Up-to-date With OCLC Batchload
If you think your library or system holdings aren't accurate in WorldCat, OCLC Batch Services can help with a one-time free retrospective batch project to align your local catalog with your WorldCat holdings. Libraries taking advantage of this must agree to keep holdings up-to-date, either interactively (using Connexion or CatExpress), or by doing on-going batchloads through OCLC.

In this session, we'll look at how this works and what's involved for both the one-time project and on-going batchloads. If there's time, we'll also look at doing local holdings maintenance via batchload.
