View Terms of Use for eResources

Find information about the Terms of Use display for your eResources from Collection Manager and License Manager.

WorldShare Management Services libraries can view Notes & License Terms for electronic resources in WorldCat Discovery. This functionality allows you to see usage terms from title-level and collection-level licenses held within WorldShare License Manager.

WorldCat Discovery continues to display Collection public notes and title level (Title, Coverage, Location) public notes from WorldShare Collection Manager. To avoid potentially displaying terms of use twice in WorldCat Discovery, both directly from WorldShare License Manager and from those previously mapped to Collection public notes in WorldShare Collection Manager, refer to Display Terms of Use in WorldCat Discovery.

All appropriate notes and terms (collection and title level) for a resource will be displayed when users click Notes & License Term in the following locations:

  • Search results
    • Individual record tile 
    • Alternative Links drawer
  • Item detail
    • Access Options panel
    • Alternative Links drawer
    • Access Online section
