World Cat Database

Hi All I had a Twitter conversation with an Alberta librarian last night who is asking, why the Open Texts are not in the WorldCat Knowledge Base. https://twitter.com/astrobri/status/915386485028933632 Apparently we need an OCLC institution to be able to maintain this? Does anyone know how to proceed?

Hi Amanda, Let me look into this. I have made sure all the catalogue records are in OCLC and have been meaning to investigate the process for establishing these as an OCLC Collection. We are an OCLC member so should be able to remedy this.
