OCLC WorldCat Group Subscriptions for Michigan Libraries

In response to the Library of Michigan’s announcement that OCLC FirstSearch will no longer be part of MeL Databases, MCLS is working to put together group subscriptions for WorldCat and the Base Package.  OCLC is presenting a webinar (July 19; repeated on July 26) to answer Michigan libraries’ questions about WorldCat and Base Package databases. Libraries interested in joining the group subscription are encouraged to attend.

If you have questions for OCLC, please email your questions to Diana Mitchell or Ruth Dukelow prior to the webinars, and we will forward them to OCLC staff.

For information on signing in to the webinars, please see instructions below.
