Discover how to filter the display by format, language, latest circulation date, location, and publication date in WorldShare Collection Evaluation.

 Note: By default, the WorldCat holdings are shown by publication date. If you want to view your library's WorldCat holdings by format, select Format from the Display By drop-down list.

Filter the display by how many times the item was circulated

  1. In the Limits panel, select Circulated # times in lifetime.
     Note:
    • For WMS institutions, the Circulated # times in lifetime count comes from the Issued Count field, which captures the total number of times that the item has been checked out or renewed. See View circulation statistics for more information.
    • Non-WMS institutions must send a circulation file to OCLC, and their Issued Count will include all circulation counts that appear in the circulation file.
  2. Define the circulated # of times in lifetime limit.
    • If you select More than from the drop-down list, enter the minimum number of times that an item was circulated in its lifetime.
    • If you select Equals from the drop-down list, enter the exact number of times that an item was circulated in its lifetime.
    • If you select Less than from the drop-down list, enter the maximum number of times that an item was circulated in its lifetime.
