WorldCat Collection Analysis - Quarterly Update and Enhancement Announcements

OCLC announced in January the completion of the latest quarterly update for WorldCat Collection Analysis. Users’ data in WCA will reflect changes made to holdings in WorldCat as of December 31, 2006. In this recent update OCLC also incorporated several changes to the user-interface aimed at improving functionality. Two of the more prominent changes are:

• The addition of Microform as document type - You can now limit your analysis by eight types of microform.
• Additional Request Data in ILL Analysis Exports - Article Date, Volume, and Issue are now included when exporting ILL data.
