Want to help test the next version of the library catalog?


OCLC is beta testing WorldCat Discovery, the next version of our WorldCat library catalog


Currently OCLC is looking for graduate student and faculty feedback. (FYI We expect OCLC to have WorldCat Discovery ready for our library to use before summer 2015)

If you're interested, please respond to this call for help:

-----
As we continue to build WorldCat Local functionality into Discovery over the coming months we will use several methods to assess early designs and completed implementations, including interactive, task-based usability studies conducted remotely via WebEx.  Currently, we are recruiting both undergraduate and graduate students as well as library staff to participate in these studies.  If you'd be interested in helping us recruit students or have staff at your institution who can participate, either immediately or over the coming months, or want to know more about what that might involve, please contact either Colleen Way wayc@oclc.org or Arnold Arcolio, arcolioa@oclc.org.
