How do I update my library's name?
Symptom
- Your library's name has changed and you want to correct it in all of OCLC's products and services.
Applies to
- WorldCat Registry
- WorldShare ILL
- WorldCat Discovery
- Policies Directory
- Service Configuration
Resolution
Send an email to OCLC Order services so we can get our back-end systems updated with the correct name. If you need to have the WorldCat.org URL changed as well, note this in the email.
The rest will differ based on your library's subscriptions, but you can follow the list below to get started:
- Update the WorldCat Registry in the Name and Location tab in your Service Configuration.
- Update your Constant Data settings in Service Configuration > WorldShare ILL > Borrower Data and Lender Data tabs.
- Update the Contacts tab in the Policies Directory.
