Why is a knowledge base link not appearing on an article in WorldCat Discovery?
Applies to
- WorldCat Discovery
Answer
To surface knowledge base links on article records, WorldCat Discovery uses the ISSN or title (more than 3 words match not including articles like "a" "the") to look for a match in the knowledge base. If this is not present in the article metadata, a knowledge base link will not appear.
Monographic title records (ie. eBooks, eVideo, eAudio) use OCLC number, ISSN/ISBN, or title (more than 3 words match not including articles like "a" "the") to perform the same matching function.
