6 Introduction OCLC Service Configuration uses WorldCat Services account information to configure institutionrelated information. For OCLC members, it also allows configuration of OCLC products and services. Note: Any user will be able to use WorldCat Registry settings to configure institution information, but you may only see other OCLC products and services to which you subscribe. Products WorldCat Discovery WorldCat Discovery Services provides a suite of cloud-based applications that brings the FirstSearch and WorldCat Local services together. Administrative settings for WorldCat Discovery are in OCLC Service Configuration; however, only specific settings are needed to configure WorldCat Discovery. Once you have your WorldCat Discovery URL, use the concise guide, WorldCat Discovery settings, to lead you through the relevant modules to personalize your WorldCat Discovery interface and enable searchable content. Libraries will not use the FirstSearch administrative interface to manage WorldCat Discovery. Libraries that add for-fee options to their WorldCat Discovery Service subscription have additional configuration settings. See the WorldCat Discovery documentation page, WorldCat Discovery: Getting Started with Options, and this guide as needed. WorldCat Local Configure your WorldCat Local settings: Update your banner, custom links and display settings. Set the default sort order of your search results. Edit your local relevancy group. Specify the OpenURL resolvers that will display. Customize your Place Hold and Request buttons (WorldCat Local only). Define circulation and lending policies (WorldCat Local only). Customize your OCLC Holding Code Location information (WorldCat Local only). Display content or links to your end users. Supply a feedback address, and describe the level of system support you provide. Metasearch Content Select and organize databases that your users can search.

When the sort order in WorldCat Local is set to "Library and Relevance," the search results will display based on the levels of relevancy configured here. By default, WorldCat Local displays results for your institution or institutions first, followed by Libraries Worldwide. OCLC symbols that represent your institution (1 st Level of Relevancy) Items held by your OCLC institution symbols will be sorted first. A patron searching on your WorldCat.org will be affiliated with institutions at this level. The libraries represented by these symbols must share a catalog in order to return holdings and availability. OCLC Symbols Display name Enter OCLC symbols separated by commas. Click Find OCLC institution symbols to find an OCLC participating library or its symbol. Note: If any changes are made to your OCLC symbols, items held by your library will temporarily not be displayed in WorldCat.org until the next business day (approximately 9 a.m. US Eastern time). This also applies to holdings for your original symbol. This name will appear on the "Libraries that own this item" line on the search results, in scoping drop-downs, and in the detailed item view where availability is shown. Note: You can also confirm how the display name is shown in the User Interface Options module under Institution Name. Note: Any changes to your institution information will not be reflected in WorldCat.org until the following business day (approximately 9 a.m. US Eastern time). Items held by your library will temporarily not be displayed until the next business day. 2 nd /3 rd Level of Relevancy (optional) In your WorldCat.org, items held at these levels will sort immediately after the level configured in the 1 st Level of Relevancy (above). This is usually a consortia catalog, or a group that lends items to your patrons. If a different scope hasn t been selected by a user, WorldCat.org will limit results to items held by the configured default scoping level. OCLC Symbols Display name Select your participating library group from the drop-down list. If your library group is not listed, enter the OCLC institution symbols of all of the members of your library group. Enter OCLC symbols separated by commas. Click Find OCLC institution symbols to find an OCLC participating library or its symbol. This name will appear on the "Held by" line on the search results in WorldCat Local, in scoping drop-downs, and in the detailed item view where availability is shown. Note: Any changes to your institution information will not be reflected in WorldCat.org until the following business day (approximately 9 a.m. US Eastern time). Items held by your library will temporarily not be displayed until the next business day. OCLC Service Configuration Guide page 17

18 Default Scoping Level My WorldCat.org Scoping gives users the ability to limit results to items held by your institution, or items held by your institution and those held by Libraries Worldwide. Choose the default scoping level you prefer from the drop-down list. The user has the option of overriding this setting. Libraries not using WorldCat Local have the option to turn off scoping entirely. Default sort on search results Default sort Display the top 5 relevancy results in addition to the Library and Relevance results (known item searching) You may define how search results are sorted by default when initially displayed. A user may change this setting to view other sort options, but every time a search result is initially displayed, the default sort setting will always be selected. Choose your default sort level from the drop-down list. You may also choose to display the top five relevancy results for a search in WorldCat Local. If enabled, WorldCat Local will display the top five most relevant items from any library, followed by the library and relevance. Note: Configuring the top five relevancy results will have no impact on the default sort order. If you ve configured a sort order other than Library and Relevance it will continue to be the default and the top five relevancy results will only display when the user manually sorts to Library and Relevance using the drop-down in WorldCat Local. The user can collapse the top 5 results if they do not want them. When you are finished, click Cancel to start over, or Save Changes to save and continue.

104 Direct Request Profiles fields WorldShare Interlibrary Loan Note: Required fields are marked with an asterisk (*). Profile Information Profile Name Description The name of this profile (20-character limit, with no special characters) that clearly indicates the scope of the group of requests to which the profile pertains. The name must be unique. Note: In reports generated by Direct Request, the profile is identified only by name. Profile names are not case sensitive, so, for example, TEST is the same as test. Examples: EARTICLTEST MAXCOPY A description of the group of requests to which the profile pertains, up to 140 alpha-numeric characters long. Leave blank if no description is necessary. Examples: Loans for faculty Copy requests costing less than $5.00 Request Sources Indicates if the source of a request is relevant to the profile, and if so, the source name or names. If you want the profile to apply to requests from particular sources, type the names of up to six sources in the boxes provided. Source names can be up to eight alpha-numeric characters. The values must be valid values in your ILL requests. Source names are not case sensitive, so FSILL is the same as fsill. Spelling is important, however, so FSlink is not acceptable as the valid value FSILL. Leave blank if the source of a request is not relevant to the profile. Examples: FSILL FSlink Request Type Loan (default value) Only requests for loans will match the profile. Copy Only requests for nonreturnable copies will match the profile. Patron Statuses Patron status or statuses, if any, to which the profile applies, up to 65 alpha-numeric characters long. Patron status is not case sensitive, so Grad is the same as grad. Spelling is important, however, so Grad is not the same as Graduate. Spaces and commas are not valid; they are used as delimiters between multiple patron statuses. If the profile applies to more than one status, type each status separated by at least one blank space or comma. Leave blank if the status of patrons does not apply to the group of requests you are profiling. Examples: Grad UnderGrad Faculty OCLC Service Configuration Guide page 104

105 WorldShare Interlibrary Loan Patron Departments Patron department or departments, if any, to which the profile applies, up to 65 alpha-numeric characters long. Patron department is not case sensitive, so CompSci is the same as compsci. Spelling is important, however, so CompSci is not the same as CSCI. Spaces and commas are not valid characters; they are used as delimiters. If the profile applies to more than one department, type each department separated by at least one blank space or comma. Leave blank if department does not apply to the group of requests you are profiling. Examples: CompSci Chemistry Biology Patron Will Pay Up To The amount (in US dollars), if any, the patron will pay for the requested material. For a request to match a profile, the amount specified in the request must be equal to or greater than the amount specified in the profile. For example, if the request specifies 7 ($7.00), and the profile specifies 5 ($5.00), the request matches the profile --- a patron willing to pay $7 is also willing to pay $5. On the other hand, if the profile specifies 10, then the profile does not match, because a patron willing to pay $7 is not willing to pay $10. Type a number. Do not type the dollar ($) symbol. A value of 0 means that the patron is not willing to pay anything for the material being requested. Leave blank if the amount the patron will pay does not apply to the group of requests you are profiling. Examples: Need at Earliest/ No Later Than Used to define a date range, if any, within which the patron must receive the material. In a loan request, the patron's date requirement is specified in the field named Need Before. For example, a Need Before value of 4 means that the patron must receive the material within four days of creating the request. To match the profile, the Need Before value in a request must fall within the range you specify in the profile by values you associate with Need At Earliest and No Later Than. For example, if the profile has a Need At Earliest value of 4 and a No Later Than value of 7, an incoming request with a Need Before value of 5 will match the profile. However, if the patron specifies a Need Before value of 3 in the request, the request will not match the profile. Type a whole number from Leave both fields blank if date range does not apply to the group of requests you are profiling. Format One or more bibliographic formats that a request must specify if it is to match the profile. Select a format from the list provided. Do not select a format if it does not apply to the group of requests you are profiling. OCLC Service Configuration Guide page 105

107 WorldShare Interlibrary Loan Minimum Number in Lender Strings The minimum number of lenders that must be specified in the request in order for the request to match the profile. For example, if the minimum number of lenders specified in the profile is 4, an incoming request with only three lenders does not match. Choose 1, 2, 3, 4, or 5 from the drop-down menu. A lender string must have at least one lender. *Custom Holdings Path Produce the Request Direct Request finds lenders for requests based upon Custom Holdings paths you define. The list contains all current Custom Holdings paths defined for your institution. Select one path from the list provided. Also see Custom Holdings Paths. Yes: You want Direct Request to automatically produce requests that match this profile. No: You want Direct Request to put all matching requests in your Review File so you can review the work done by Direct Request before it is sent to a lender. Prefers E-article processing This option applies to your library only if it has added metadata about its electronic collections to the WorldCat knowledge base and activated a link to the WorldCat knowledge base. Then your library is ready to use Direct Request for articles or Direct Request for e- books. This option has three values: No, E within group, and E across groups. o No: This is the default value. It leaves Direct Request for articles and Direct Request for e-books turned off. Select this value for all of your Direct Request profiles if your library has not added its metadata and activated the link to the WorldCat knowledge base. If your library has activated the link, use No for Direct Request profiles that are not copy profiles for articles or loan profiles for e- books. Use E within group or E across groups for Direct Request profiles that are copy profiles for articles. Use E within group for Direct Request profiles that are loan profiles for e-books so e-book requests will be searched in the knowledge base even though all e-book requests will be placed in your Review file for action and not sent automatically to potential lenders. o E within group: For each Custom Holdings group in your Custom Holdings path for articles, Direct Request selects lenders who have an electronic version of the article and then selects lenders who have a print copy only. Example: In a path containing two groups, Direct Request selects lenders in this order: group 1 lenders who have an electronic version; group 1 lenders who have a print copy only; group 2 lenders who have an electronic version; group 2 lenders who have a print copy only. o E across groups: Across all Custom Holdings groups in your Custom Holdings path for articles, Direct Request selects lenders who have an electronic version of the article and then selects lenders who have a print copy only. Example: In a path containing two groups, Direct Request selects lenders in this order: group 1 lenders who have an electronic version; group 2 lenders who have an electronic version; group 1 lenders who have a print copy only; group 2 lenders who have a print copy only.
