19. The world’s libraries. Connected. When a result is found, the researcher needs to be directed quickly and reliably to the corresponding record in the host institution’s library catalog This is working well for some institutions in the artlibraries.net WorldCat target, not working well for others Linking to Library Catalogs

20. The world’s libraries. Connected. Causes of library catalog link problems: The WorldCat Registry does not have a current URL for the library catalog OCLC numbers are not present in the library catalog for matching Other matching identifiers (ISBNs, etc.) are not available in the library catalog, or not in synch with WorldCat Linking to Library Catalogs

21. The world’s libraries. Connected. Remedies for library catalog link problems: Maintaining library catalog URLs in the WorldCat Institution Registry Providing search access to OCLC numbers in the library catalog Synchronizing library catalog records with WorldCat Linking to Library Catalogs

35. The world’s libraries. Connected. 32 libraries already loaded in WorldCat 90 days or fewer from receipt of good MARC file Other formats (Intermarc, Unimarc, Pica+) possible – extra work needed – further discussion Maintenance (regular batchloading) Loading logistics

36. The world’s libraries. Connected. Libraries can continue to use WC-API in local portals or in local discovery solutions (part of subscription model) Libraries could opt for WorldCat Local (including interoperation to local systems) Special projects and extra work open for discussion Further

37. The world’s libraries. Connected. Agreement with artlibraries.net about a further model Group-catalogue with libraries already represented in WorldCat Branding of this group catalogue Discussion about a price-model Step by step addition of “new” art-libraries Possible way forward
