- Electronic Resources in a Next-Generation Catalog: The Case of WorldCat Local Shadle, Steve Electronic Libraries Academic Libraries Library Networks Online Catalogs Bibliographic Databases Information Systems Computer Interfaces Access to Information In April 2007, the University of Washington Libraries debuted WorldCat Local (WCL), a localized version of the WorldCat database that interoperates with a library's integrated library system and fulfillment services to provide a single-search interface for a library's physical and electronic content. This brief will describe how WCL incorporates a library's existing e-resource access methods into its interface and also discusses additional e-resource access services that are not typically found in the library catalog. (Contains 5 figures.)
