Learn how to authorize users to manage your WorldCat registry profile in OCLC Service Configuration.

Use this screen to authorize users to manage this profile. To access this screen, sign in to Service Configuration, open the WorldCat Registry left navigation and select Authorized Users.

Refer to OCLC Service Configuration roles to find the roles available in the WorldShare Admin module which allow access to the OCLC Service Configuration  and the WorldCat Registry. Refer to Sign in to OCLC Service Configuration for additional information.

 Notes: 

  • A user must be authorized to view and modify branch Registry records. Refer to Relationships for more information about setting up related institutions. After selecting one of the existing relationships, select Authorize me for this record to authorize a user to modify branch Registry records. OCLC Orders will contact the user when they are authorized, allowing them to edit the Registry record for branches. Contact OCLC Support for assistance if you do not have access to edit your branch locations in OCLC Service Configuration.
  • Refer to Open Hours for information about altering your institution's hours of operation. Similarly, if authorized, refer to Open Hours for information on editing branch hours.
