As far as I understand, the vendor loads the records to the OCLC knowledge base so they are ready for the library to grab.
Another option is for the library to get the records directly from the vendor (this is what we do with FilmPlatform).

Yes: but the record load is happening on the librariesâ end, not the vendorsâ end, I believe?

To answer the original question â yes, other vendors have records on OCLC, such as Swank, FilmPlatform, and Digitalia.

Hi all,
This might be a good question for an OLAC-er to explain too. My understanding is that some libraries add their streaming holdings to WorldCat. As an end-user researching who-has-it-streaming, I have found this information helpful when in WorldCat. It is also helpful when end-users could possibly go to another nearby library and access a leased item â be it a film or a journal â on a public terminal. Lastly, if one has access to multiple libraries â for example, a public library card or two and a university library â then a quick search in Worldcat might show who has access to a particular streaming collection. For example, Iâm super lucky to have access to Brookline and Boston public libraries, and a wide range of academic libraries nearby.
I have also found that thereâs a matter of collection management preferencese in whether or not to have full title holdings listed on WorldCat. Having run and analyzed reports comparing WorldCat and local holdings for various projects, including the BLC at Risk Media Project <https://blc.org/special-highlights/blc-risk-media-project> , I find that there is some advantage to seeing all holdings on WorldCat. Then again, if a streaming film is leased and not owned, others might argue that it they donât want this to be listed in WorldCat.
Lots to think about.

Good point, Jessica. I'm quite sure they are not at all concerned about that issue. They don't tell libraries with current licenses or open pda programs when they drop titles, and it can happen mid-semester-- they just disappear. I've heard reports of this from a few librarians.

That's kind of weird. What happens if a title is removed and is no longer available would it still show up in Worldcat?

Hello,
Many of you are aware that Kanopy titles are listed in WorldCat.
Do you know if all other vendors plan to do the same, and list their streaming titles in WorldCat?
Best,
