What is OCLCs plan for Web-scale management services and how will they interoperate with my OCLC services?
Web-scale management services will provide a network-level platform for the management of local library collections. The cooperative service will interoperate directly with OCLC services, including WorldCat Local, and will have several features that distinguish it from a traditional library management service. The network-level platform will: • Enable basic functionality with streamlined and customizable workflows • Significantly reduce the total cost of ownership for managing library resources • Embrace a service-oriented architecture for interoperability with other business process systems, such as financial systems, HR systems, course management systems, and authentication services • Provide services at Web scale (the ability to support thousands of libraries on a single platform) • Create immediate, cooperative, network effects through shared metadata, group identity management, discovery, materials sharing, financial transactions, socialization, service resolution, collection mana
