Title: Quality Control Efforts of the OCLC WorldCat Database
Author: Block, Brenda
Abstract:

Quality control in any local library's catalog requires a huge effort. The presenter will discuss the OCLC Quality Control Section's efforts that are being done on OCLC's WorldCat database of over 100 million records. The presentation will include:

  • What global changes at OCLC are being done outside of the Quality Control Section
  • How to report errors/changes/duplicates to the Quality Control Section and how these are processed
  • Proactive corrections made within the Quality Control Section
  • What OCLC member libraries can do
  • What other changes we can look forward to in the future
