Title

Dynamics of the OCLC Online Union Catalog : an analysis of the presence of records for newly-announced books and the rate of addition of institution symbols

Abstract

Book announcements in the health sciences and in fiction were used as samples to observe the presence of bibliographic records and to monitor the rate of addition of institution symbols in the OCLC Online Union Catalog. Preliminary results indicate that, for the vast majority of titles, records already existed in the Online Union Catalog when the title was announced. The rates of addition of holding libraries suggest that libraries used the health science titles in an essentially linear manner, while added locations for the fiction titles follow an exponential curve.
