Options for libraries with a CatExpress subscription

Esta página proporciona detalles para las bibliotecas con una suscripción CatExpress que utilizan WorldShare Collection Manager para la salida de registros MARC. Muestra las opciones que no contarán para su suscripción.

Empezar

1. Create a Collection Manager account

If you need access to Collection Manager (the Metadata tab in the WorldShare interface), follow the steps to Create a Collection Manager account.

2. Explore your options

See how the options below relate to your CatExpress subscription. Follow the links to find instructions.

 Note: Enabling record delivery and enabling WorldCat holdings require separate actions in Collection Manager and each action can be performed independently. This behavior differs from that of the CatExpress application where one action sets a holding in WorldCat and initiates record delivery.

Options for CatExpress libraries
