World’s largest network of library content and services

WorldCat is the world’s largest network of library content and services. WorldCat libraries are dedicated to providing access to their resources on the Web, where most people start their search for information.

You can search for popular books, music CDs and videos—all of the physical items you’re used to getting from libraries. You can also discover many new kinds of digital content, such as downloadable audiobooks. You may also find article citations with links to their full text; authoritative research materials, such as documents and photos of local or historic significance; and digital versions of rare items that aren’t available to the public. Because WorldCat libraries serve diverse communities in dozens of countries, resources are available in many languages

OCLC (Online Computer Library Center) is uniting all offices under one name and visual brand to reflect our global enterprise with a unified strategy to serve libraries worldwide. To support our global direction, OCLC is moving toward a single product strategy and a single web presence that will consolidate all current OCLC web sites around the globe. The new logo and brand identity will be integrated in OCLC communications—including a new, global Web site—throughout the end of the year.
