INFOhio Expanded Cataloging Services
OCLC WorldCat Access

Click for OCLC's introduction to WorldCat.INFOhio has joined with Ohio's Information Technology Centers (ITCs) that support INFOhio to purchase an expanded cataloging subscription from OHIONET/OCLC. The expanded cataloging service allows schools automated with INFOhio to access OCLC WorldCat using the SmartPort feature; they can import an unlimited number of bibliographic records throughout the 2010-2011 school year.

The OCLC WorldCat bibliographic database contains more than 100 million records from all types of libraries worldwide. WorkFlows users can select and download individual bibliographic records by using SmartPort. A SmartPort connection to WorldCat has been established through each Information Technology Center (ITC), so WorkFlows users need no separate username or password to access WorldCat.

School libraries that are not automated with INFOhio may subscribe to CatExpress directly through OHIONET for 2010-2011 and will retrieve exported records directly from OCLC's website (rather than the INFOhio website). For OHIONET membership information, please contact Jill Boggs Brust, 800-686-8975, ext. 20, jillb@ohionet.org.

There is no limit to the number of OCLC records schools can capture, but we do encourage library staff to use SmartPort to search the INFOhio Curriculum Resource Catalog first, as those records may contain standard alignments that are not found elsewhere.

Documentation and Support
The INFOhio documentation for SmartPort has been updated to reflect the addition of the OCLC WorldCat database. Please refer questions about using SmartPort or problems connecting  to the OCLC WorldCat database to the appropriate ITC provider.

Technical Specifications
The following port and IP address range will need to be open in order for schools to use OCLC WorldCat via SmartPort:
Port: 210
IP: 132.174.11.*
Domain: ZCAT.OCLC.ORG
