  • York St John University was the first academic library in the UK to implement the resource discovery interface, OCLC WorldCat Local. Here the technical implementation and usability of the interface is discussed, along with the reasons that led to the decision to implement WorldCat Local, the processes involved and some of the problems encountered. Links are provided to further information on the project which attracted JISC funding to produce an in depth case study of the implementation and the usability of the product.
