Manage Collections: How to Enable MARC Record Delivery 

This document guides you through the process of enabling, customizing, and receiving MARC records. You 

can receive MARC records for Standard Collections that you have added to your WorldCat knowledge base 

and/or receive MARC records for WorldCat Query Collections that you have created. 

Create a Standard Collection not 

currently represented in the 

global WorldCat knowledge base, 

that is, add a niche collection or a 

collection of print serials to your 

library’s knowledge base. 

Add a Standard Collection by 

unchecking “My Library Holdings 

Only” and searching for the collection 

in the global WorldCat 

knowledge base. 

Create a WorldCat Query Collection 

based on the existing WorldCat indexes 

without needing to select titles 

record by record.

Enable MARC Record Delivery at the institutional level 

You need to enable MARC Record Delivery at the institutional level whether you plan to receive MARC records 

based on Standard Collections or on WorldCat Query Collections. To enable MARC Record Delivery at 

the institutional level, log in to your library’s WorldShare interface. If you need help with your log in credentials, 

please contact orders@oclc.org. 

Mozilla Firefox is the preferred browser for the WorldShare interface. Google Chrome is an alternative. 

Once you have logged into the WorldShare interface, continue with these steps: 

1. Click on the Metadata (or Licenses) tab. 

2. Expand Manage Collections. 

3. Verify that your OCLC symbol is selected: 

Click Settings. Expand “Knowledge Base” and verify that your OCLC symbol is selected. If you do 

not see your library’s OCLC symbol, please contact support@oclc.org before you proceed. 

4. Next, click on Library Holdings and expand “Enable MARC Record Delivery” and select “Yes”. 

5. Enter a 4-character holding library code. The default setting is “MAIN”. Change the code if you 

would like something other than “MAIN”. This field is required. 

6. Select a Record Standard among the following options: 

MARC 21 with MARC-8 character set 

MARC 21 with UTF-8 Unicode character set 

MARCXML with UTF-8 Unicode character set 

Dublin Core Qualified with UTF-8 Unicode character set 

Dublin Core Simple with UTF-8 Unicode character set 

OCLC Dublin Core Qualified with UTF-8 Unicode character set 

OCLC Dublin Core Simple with UTF-8 Unicode character set 

MODS with UTF-8 Unicode character set 

The record standard defaults to MARC 21 with MARC-8 character set. See more about MARC 21, 

Dublin Core, or MARC XML and MODS on the Web.

Customize your MARC records at the institutional level: Options for All Collections 

You have options to customize your records as applicable to your local system. You can delete fields from the 

records or add fields to make tracking and uploading records easier. 

Note: OCLC processes field deletes before processing the add fields. Customizations are processed in this order 

so that we don’t inadvertently delete the fields you are adding to the records. 

Customize your records using: 

Delete Fields 

Use field deletes to delete specific fields from your records. Select a MARC 21 tag or a MARC 21 tag 

and indicators from the dropdowns. 

Delete Subfields 

Use subfield deletes to delete specific subfields from your records. Select a MARC 21 tag and a subfield 

code from the dropdowns. Add indicators as desired. 

Add Fields 

Add fields to include specific data in each record. Enter a MARC 21 tag. Select Indicators and Subfields 

from the dropdowns as desired. Use the plus and minus signs to add or remove tags and subfields. 

Use the Value dropdown arrow to select among the values below: 

� Enter Free-form Text: Enter any text. This will be constant data that will display in every record. 

� Transaction Type: This adds “New”, “Updated”, or “Deleted” in the specified Tag in each record. 

Find more information. 

� KB Provider Name 

� KB Collection Name 

� KB Collection Level Note 

� KB Title Level Public Note 

� KB Coverage Dates 

� KB Location 

� KB Coverage Note 

� KB Coverage Enumerations 

If you add one of these options to a field, OCLC retrieves 

the information from your WorldCat knowledge base. For 

every collection or title that has data in these areas, the 

data will be added to the record. For information on adding 

notes to your collections and titles in the knowledge 

base, see Collection Settings and Title-level Settings.

Screenshot of the customization area under Options for All Collections in the interface: 

Save! 

Don’t forget to save 

your changes! 

Click “Save” on the right 

side of the screen. 

You have the option to enter more than one Value in a single field by selecting “Add Another Value.” For 

example, you could: 

� Select the Value “Enter Free-Form Text” and type the free text “The collection name is” 

� Then, select the Value “Add Another Value” and select “KB Collection Name” from the Value drop down 

If you chose the values in this example, “The collection name is *collection name retrieved from your World- 

Cat knowledge base+” would be added to your MARC record outputs. 

Using “Add Another Value”: Combine values in a single field by selecting a value such as “Enter 

Free-Form Text” and then selecting the value “Add Another Value” from the dropdown. 

Note that an additional 

value column was added.

About 856 field processing for Standard Collections 

WorldCat records include 856 fields that contain URLs that might not be accessible to your institution. When 

OCLC processes MARC records for your library, OCLC deletes the URLs from the master records in order to 

customize the record to include only the 856s specific to your library from your library’s WorldCat knowledge 

base. This process ensures that your library’s MARC records have only the URLs your library needs. 

Titles are often available through more than one provider. Your library will receive updated records when a 

title is available through a new provider and when a provider no longer offers the title and the URL needs to 

be removed. Find more information on about the types of records your library will receive in the Files: New, 

Updates, and Deletes section. 

Customize the 856 field for Standard Collections 

Choose a subfield from the drop down and a value from the drop down. Click the plus to add another field. 

Example of how a library customized their 856 field and how their customizations are reflected in 

the MARC record: 

856 fields in the MARC record BEFORE processing: 

The library chose “Enter Free-Form 

Text” from the drop down and typed 

“Click for resource” so that this would 

appear in Subfield z in their records.

Customize the 856 field for WorldCat Query Collections 

You have the following options to customize the 856 field in records for titles in your WorldCat Query Collections. 

You will see these options when you Enable MARC Record Delivery at the institutional level: 

Retain 856 Fields with these domains 

� If the “Retain 856 Fields with these domains” option is selected and it does not match any URL, then all 

856 fields are retained. 

� If the domain option is selected and it matches multiple URLs, then all matching 856 fields are retained. 

This is an exact text match to the beginning text of the URL in 856 $u. 

� If multiple domains are entered, the system will look for any of those domains in the records. 

Please Note: if a record is also in your knowledge base, we will use the 856 field from your knowledge base, 

not from the WorldCat record. 

See the next page for examples of entered domain URLs and 856 processing for WorldCat Query Collections. 

Delete Subfields 

You have the option to Delete Subfields for WorldCat Query Collection 856 fields. 

Add Subfields 

You have the option to Add Subfields for WorldCat Query Collection 856 fields. You can select a Subfield from 

the drop down to Enter Free-Form Text and/or select the Transaction Type.

Add and configure Standard Collections 

After you have enabled MARC Record Delivery at the institutional level (under Library Holdings), you need to 

search for your collections and enable MARC Record Delivery on a collection-by-collection basis. You also 

have the option to include collection-level or title-level notes to be reflected in your MARC records if you 

have chosen those customizations. If you have not added collections to your knowledge base, see the box 

“Add Standard Collections” below. Otherwise, proceed to the instructions to “Enable MARC Record Delivery 

for Standard Collections” on the next page. 

Add Standard Collections 

Find your WorldCat knowledge base by logging into your library’s WorldShare interface (using Mozilla 

Firefox or Google Chrome as your browser). Click on Metadata (or Licenses) from the top of the screen, 

and then expand Manage Collections. There are different ways to add Standard Collections to your 

knowledge base. Choose a method based on the type of collection you are adding: 

Create a Standard Collection not 

currently represented in the 

global WorldCat knowledge base, 

that is, add a niche collection or a 

collection of print serials to your 

library’s knowledge base. 

Add a Standard Collection by 

searching for and selecting the 

collection in the global WorldCat 

knowledge base. Remember to 

uncheck “My Library Holdings 

Only” before performing a search. 

For help on selecting and modifying collections in your WorldCat knowledge base, 

please see the “Building your WorldCat knowledge base” document: 

http://www.oclc.org/support/documentation/collection-management/build_kb.pdf 

Sharing Collections 

You have the option to share individual collections or all of your collections with your partner libraries. 

Likewise, you can accept collections your partner libraries have shared with you. For more information on 

sharing collections, please see http://www.oclc.org/support/documentation/collection-management/

4. Open each collection and expand the “Properties” drop down 

5. Select “Yes” for “Enable MARC Record Delivery” 

OCLC will begin processing MARC records for the collection daily. The records will be available to you via 

FTP to your library’s folder on the OCLC Data Exchange Server in approximately 48 hours. 

If desired, you can choose the option to receive a daily email report (via the OCLC Usage Statistics Portal) 

that will tell you whether or not new records have been output for you and are waiting on the server in 

your library’s folder. You will receive an email even if no records were output that day. 

You have the option to customize your MARC record outputs to reflect specific data from your knowledge 

base, such as the note fields you have added. You can customize your records to include a collection-level 

or title-level note that you want represented in your WorldCat Local and/or your local ILS. 

� See Collection Settings and Title-level Settings for more information on adding notes to your WorldCat 

knowledge base collections. 

� See the Customize your MARC records at the institutional level section of this document for help to

One-time Delivery: Choose One-time delivery to receive a file of MARC records for a WorldCat Query collection once. 

Daily Delivery: Choose Daily Delivery to receive files daily. In addition to records with updates, you will receive new 

records for titles that meet your query criteria as the records are added to WorldCat. Likewise, you will receive deletes 

when a WorldCat record changes so that it no longer meets your query criteria. 

Note: You may change this setting in the future as desired. If you change the Collection Type from One-time Delivery 

to Daily Delivery, you will receive new, update, and delete records representing changes to the collection since the 

last time you received records. 

6. Choose "Yes" to Enable MARC Record Delivery (Note: To get a count of records retrieved from 

your selection criteria *as shown on the next page+, you need to select “Yes”. This is a know issue 

that will be fixed in February 2013.) 

7. Define the WorldCat Selection Criteria for the collection. 

Please note: 

� Boolean operators must be entered with all capital letters (AND, OR, NOT)

� Expand the Filter and check “WorldCat query collections” as shown below: 

� The collection will say “In Process” until it is ready for your confirmation. 

� When the collection says “Please Confirm” with the number of titles in the collection, click on the 

title of the collection and confirm the collection. 

� View the number of records that your selection criteria retrieved. Chose to Confirm Collection or 

Edit Selection Criteria. 

(Note: To get a count of records retrieved from your selection criteria, you need to have selected 

“Yes” to Enable MARC record delivery at the institutional level and at the collection level. This is a 

known issue that will be fixed in February 2013.) 

After you confirm the collection, your files of records will be available in approximately 48 hours. The records 

will be available to you via FTP to your library’s folder on the OCLC Data Exchange Server. 

If desired, you can choose the option to receive a daily email report (via the OCLC Usage Statistics Portal) 

that will tell you whether or not new records have been output for you and are waiting on the server in 

your library’s folder. You will receive an email even if no records were output that day. 

Sharing Collections

sharing collections, please see http://www.oclc.org/support/documentation/collection-management/ 

kb_sharing.pdf 

11

Understand your records 

How records are processed for a collection 

� After you add a Standard Collection or WorldCat Query Collection and enable MARC Record Delivery at the 

institutional level and at the collection level, master records from WorldCat are retrieved for the titles. 

Note: For Standard Collections, if there if a title does not have a record in WorldCat, a record will not be 

retrieved. Therefore, you may receive fewer records than you have titles in a collection. 

� Your customization edits are applied to the records. Field deletes are processed before the add fields so 

that we don’t inadvertently delete the fields you are adding to the records. 

856 fields are processed as follows: 

� For Standard Collections, existing 856 URLs are deleted and your URLs from your WorldCat knowledge 

base are added. 

� For WorldCat Query Collections, 856 fields from the WorldCat record are used, edited as you defined. 

If a title is also in your knowledge base in a collection that has MARC Record Delivery enabled, 

the 856 field from your knowledge base is used. 

� OCLC outputs the MARC records to your library’s folder on the OCLC Data Exchange Server where your library 

can access them via FTP/SFTP. Note: Files are available approximately 48 hours after MARC Record 

Delivery is enabled. 

� As new titles are added to collections, titles are updated, or titles are deleted from collections, you will receive 

the records you need from OCLC to upload to your local ILS system. 

� You can choose the option to receive a daily email report (via the OCLC Usage Statistics Portal) that will tell 

you whether or not new records have been output for you and are waiting on the server in your library’s 

folder. You will receive an email even if no records were output that day. 

Note: The following edits are not in records for deletes: 

856 

KB Provider Name 

KB Collection Name 

KB Collection Level Note 

KB Coverage Dates 

KB Coverage Enumerations 

KB Location 

KB Coverage Note 

12

Files: New, Updates and Deletes 

When you retrieve your library’s files from OCLC’s server, there will be three kinds of files (New, Updates and Deletes) 

as defined below. Files are output in chunks of no more than 100,000 records each. 

Note: Not every title in the WorldCat knowledge base has a corresponding WorldCat record. Therefore, for Standard 

Collections, you might receive fewer records than are represented in the knowledge base collection title list. 

Files of records are distinguished as New, Updates, and Deletes. For collections in the WorldCat knowledge base 

with MARC Record Delivery enabled: 

New – Includes records for titles added to collections that have not previously been delivered via 

this MARC Record Delivery service (based on OCLC number). 

Updates – Includes records for titles in collections where there has been a change to the provider, 

collection, URL, or proxy server. 

For Standard Collections, if you selected any of the following options and the data in these 

areas is updated in your knowledge base, you will receive updated records: 

Collection- level Settings: 

� KB Provider Name 

� KB Collection Name 

� KB Collection Level Note 

Title-level Settings: 

� KB Title Level Public Note 

� KB Coverage Note 

� KB Location 

� KB Coverage Dates 

� KB Coverage Enumerations 

For help adding note fields to your WorldCat 

knowledge base collections/titles, see: 

http://www.oclc.org/support/ 

documentation/collection-management/ 

kb_collectionsettings.pdf 

Deletes – Includes records for titles in collections where the library no longer has access to the title 

from any provider or a title no longer fits your WorldCat Selection Criteria for WorldCat Query Collections. 

13

Retrieve your MARC records (FTP) 

OCLC Order Services (orders@oclc.org) has created a File Transfer Protocol (FTP) account for you on the 

OCLC Data Exchange Server. Use this account to retrieve your MARC records. Files of records are transferred 

to your institution’s folder as they are processed. Use the FTP client of your choice and one of the two options 

below. See Understand your records for more information about your files. 

Automated Retrieval 

Some libraries use a FTP client or a custom script to monitor their folder on OCLC’s server and to automatically 

transfer new files to a location at their library. Records can then be loaded automatically to their ILS. 

Retention 

Files are retained on the server for 90 days. 

File names 

Names of files on the FTP server begin with “metacoll” followed by your OCLC institution symbol, then 

“new”, “updates” or “deletes”. 

Examples: 

metacoll.DXU.new.D20120411.T104526.1.mrc 

metacoll.DXU.updates.D20120411.T104526.1.mrc 

metacoll.DXU.deletes.D20120411.T104526.1.mrc 

The remainder of the name is comprised of the date (Dyyyymmdd), time stamp, and one numeric digit (.1, .2, 

etc). The time stamp expresses the time we collected the data from your WorldCat knowledge base. A time 

stamp that reads T104526, means we pulled the data from your knowledge base at 10:45.26. The time stamp 

is Eastern time in 24-hour clock format, including hours, minutes, and seconds (Thhmmss). 

FTP Methods: FTP and SFTP 

You may use command line (Linux) or a FTP client of your choice. If you are using a FTP client, use only the 

information you need from below: 

FTP: 

1. Enter the following command to access the server: ftp ftp2.oclc.org 

2. Enter your institution’s assigned username 

3. When prompted, enter your assigned password 

4. Enter cd /metacoll/out/ongoing/new or cd /metacoll/out/ongoing/updates or 

cd /metacoll/out/ongoing/deletes to access the directories for export files 

5. To retrieve files, enter the following sequence of commands: 

binary (prevents character set translation) 

prompt (turns off prompts, allowing you to download all files with one command) 

mget * 

6. To delete files after retrieving them, enter mdelete * 

Note: To avoid downloading the same files again, be sure to delete files after transferring them 

7. To exit, enter quit 

14

Secure FTP: 

1. Enter the following command: sftp username@scp.oclc.org 

Replace username with your institution’s assigned username 

2. When prompted, enter your assigned password 

3. Enter cd /xfer/metacoll/out/ongoing/new or cd /xfer/metacoll/out/ongoing/updates or 

cd /xfer/metacoll/out/ongoing/deletes to access the directories for export files 

4. To retrieve files, enter get * 

5. To delete files after retrieving them, enter rm * 

Note: To avoid downloading the same files again, be sure to delete files after transferring them 

6. To exit, enter quit 

Access reports and OCLC usage stats 

Once files have been output for your library, statistics are available. You can activate the option to receive a 

daily email report that tells you whether or not records have been output to your library’s folder on the OCLC 

Data Exchange Server. You will receive an email even if no data is available for that day. To set up automatic 

email notifications and to view your statistics: 

1. Use Internet Explorer or Mozilla Firefox to access the OCLC Usage Statistics Portal (CUSP) for 

Cataloging at http://www.stats.oclc.org 

2. Log in with your OCLC Connexion (cataloging) authorization and password 

3. Click on Cataloging and then Metadata Collections 

4. View your daily or monthly reports and sign up for email notification 

About Daily Reports on Metadata Collections 

The daily report is separated into New Records, Updated Records, and Deleted Records. Daily reports 

will be available online for 90 days. 

Files of less than 5,000 rows will display. Choosing the daily email option will provide users with a 

file that is less than 20,000 rows. If report is greater than 5,000 rows, or, if the email option is chosen 

and the file is greater than 20,000 rows, a message saying “Your report does not contain all of 

the data. You are viewing xxxx rows of xxxxx total rows” will be displayed. 

About Monthly Metadata Collections 

The monthly report includes a summary of activity for the month. It gives the number of records output 

for each provider, collection, and if records were new, updates or deletes. It also includes the total 

number of records delivered. Record delivery is counted by a combination of OCLC number, library 

symbol, and date. Monthly reports are available for 5 years. 

In the monthly report, the example below would count as one Update, one New, one Delete 

OSU OCLC#1 Provider 1 Collection A New 

OSU OCLC#1 Provider 2 Collection B Update 

OSU OCLC#1 Provider 3 Collection C Delete
