Danish libraries in WorldCat -Project 2008 – organizing and funding Steering committee: Leif Andresen, Danish Agency for Libraries and Media, chairman Per Mogens Petersen, consultant, Danish Bibliografical Centre Helle Brink, The State and University Library, Århus Purpose Project to analyse and decide the level of cooporation with WorldCat/OCLC Result Report – investigations and proposals Funding: DEFF (Danish Electronic Research Libraries)

  11. Timetable 2008 • 5 sub-projects = 5 reports Export of records Library Registry Mapping Dk5 to Dewey Copy-cataloguing Meeting the user • Workshop 1: Meeting the user 1.10.2008 (Researh-lib) • Workshop 2: Copy-cat and mapping 24.10.2008 (all types) • Reviews from 3 participating libraries • One report primo december 2008

  12. Export of records • All records with holdings on Danish Libraries – and the National Bibliography • Holdings for Danish Ressource Sharing (=supplying) libraries (8) • If no holdings at Danish Ressource Sharing Libraries link to library.dk for further information. Technical experience from export of records from The National Library of Education since 2005.

  13. Library Registry • Reuse of Danish Library Registry • Export in new XML-format expected – automatic updates

  14. Mapping DK5 to Dewey • Mapning of DK5 – Danish (mainly public libraries classification system) classification system to ”3-digit-dewey” Make way for transforming other classification-systems • Ensure that Danish titles works in subject based facilities in WorldCat – e.g. Collection Analysis

  15. Copy cataloguing Until last year: Danbib included records from Library of Congress, British Library and Deutsche National Bibliographie (expensive!). Test: 8 libraries (public and research) ran tests during summer 08 and compared ”Danbib today” with WorldCat as a source for copy-cataloguing. Result: • Minimized own cataloguing percentage from 17% to 6% • Music (played and printed) – almost full score • 3. Great advantage with foreign languages

  16. Meeting the userHow do we present danish libraries? Professional users in Denmark (Netpunkt): WorldCat through Netpunkt – search & requests Professional users outside Denmark: WorldCat through FirstSearch/ILL modul (transscription) End-users - Dk and outside WorldCat.org for searching – directed to library.dk, link to library/or for more information (”Make a copy and contact your local library”).
