OpenWorldCat – relevancy on the webOpenWorldCat – relevancy on the web
The Open WorldCat program makes records of library-owned materials in OCLC's WorldCat database available to Web users on popular Internet search, bibliographic and bookselling sites, including Google, Yahoo! Search and Windows Live Academic. Links to content in library collections—books, videos, serials, digital images and many other formats—appear alongside links to traditional Web content.
The result: WorldCat-participating libraries are more visible on the Web, and their collections are more accessible from the sites where many people start their search for information. Libraries get greater exposure to information-seekers and increased use of their online catalog, electronic content and other Web-based services.

![Page 13: OCLC a worldwide library cooperative New Services and Future Directions](https://reader035.vdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022070411/568147fb550346895db53086/html5/thumbnails/13.jpg)
Our destination site for public searching of the entire WorldCat database
Released August 2006 in beta form, WorldCat.org continues OCLC's efforts—begun with the Open WorldCat program—to make library resources more visible to Web users, and to increase awareness of libraries as a primary source of reliable information and helpful personal assistance. Where Open WorldCat inserts "Find in a Library" results within regular search engine results, WorldCat.org provides a permanent destination page and search box that lets a broader range of people discover the riches of library-held materials catalogued in the WorldCat database.
