London Public Library finds their MARC with BookWhere Suite!


After seeking colleagues for advice, London Public Library technical services staff did a full review of BookWhere Suite to address its derived cataloguing needs…. and purchased it!  Serving the needs of one of the most populous communities in Ontario, requires a diverse collection both in terms of languages and media.   As a result staff at the Library found themselves frequently having to spend more time either searching across multiple sources or creating from scratch metadata to ensure they were able to generate the most complete records possible to facilitate discovery.  WebClarity worked with LPL to ensure they were able to personalize groups of databases, including over 300 Canadian libraries (which will allow them to create a virtual Canadian union catalogue), as well as create post-search filters and custom record displays that work best for them.  In addition to Canadian library databases, through the software LPL can access WebClarity’s shared cooperative registry of databases, the largest such registry in the world.  #bookwheresuite #lookingforMARC #metadatamatters
