Worldcat Identities

Lorcan

Worldcat Identities went into production as part of Worldcat.org over the weekend. It is currently linked to from under the ‘details’ tab. We will be interested to see how it is used and review other integration options over time.
One nice feature is that the Tag Cloud (these are FAST headings derived from Library of Congress Subject Headings in the records) sends searches back into Worldcat.

Library leaders should be drawn from across the organization. Any idea that technology leaders are overly specialised or too distant from general library work is outmoded and counter-productive.
