Global library cooperative OCLC, US, is working with SkillSoft, a SaaS provider of e-learning and performance support solutions for global enterprises, government and education, to add records for the Books24x7 digital book catalogue to WorldCat. WorldCat claims to be one of the world’s most comprehensive databases for discovery of library resources.
SkillSoft's growing selection of over 30,000 titles in a variety of subject areas will be represented in WorldCat with a link to the Books24x7 platform.
In addition, OCLC is loading the Books24x7 collection information into the WorldCat knowledge base, enabling OCLC cataloguing libraries to easily set holdings in WorldCat for the titles to which they subscribe. WorldCat Local authenticated users will then be able to link directly to Books24x7 titles subscribed to and made available by their library from the corresponding WorldCat records.
