Resolution

In the first instance report the issue to OCLC Support. Provide the following information:

  • Your institution’s name
  • OCLC symbol or Registry ID
  • URL to the item
  • OCLC number of the item, if available
  • Proxy credentials to access your resources*

*If you are unable to provide test proxy credentials, OCLC might need to conduct a screen-sharing session with your library to troubleshoot.

Additional information

Once investigated there are two options:
1. OCLC may be able to amend the metadata to correct the linking.
2. OCLC may need to report this to the provider to be amended in a future data update.

Additionally, you may want to report this to the provider.
