Overview: Ongoing delete WorldCat holdings collection

Discover an overview of the ongoing delete WorldCat holdings records collection learning path.

Overview 

Data synchronization is an automated process that compares records from your local catalog against records in WorldCat and manages holdings on those matching records. These holdings may be at the institution-level, such as your OCLC symbol, or at the local-level, such as local holdings records (LHRs). This process also facilitates adding new records to WorldCat.

Create a delete WorldCat holdings collection to delete your holdings from specific records in WorldCat by providing MARC records.
