	LLRX.com - How Dewey Classify OCLC's Lawsuit
		OCLC's chief argument stresses that use by the Library Hotel is “likely to cause confusion as to sponsorship or authorization by OCLC, or alternatively, destroy the origin-identifying function of the Dewey Marks.” Complaint at 10.
		In the complaint, OCLC focuses on the potential for false sponsorship and false origin, also citing a concern that their Dewey could become generic in the eyes of consumers.
		OCLC has clearly not assented to the use, as evidenced by the language of the complaint itself.

	OCLC Research Publications Repository
		In our case, the Pears database was connected to an open-source standards-based SRW/U server, which was connected to an open-source standards-based OAI server, which was connected to an open-source ERRoL server [12], which applies the power of standards-based XSLT [13] to bring it all together as a holistic unit.
		We challenged an OCLC developer to implement a new repository from scratch, to get some sense for how difficult this would be.
		OCLC membership, FirstSearch, and Digital Archive incur fees, but these are optional to the architecture, and "sunk" for OCLC member institutions that already have them.

		OCLC anticipates a hot cutover from Passport to the Connexion Browser and possibly a slight gap in availability to allow for final conversion.

	Globalisation and Information Access. by Colin Steele
		OCLC has positioned itself to become the springboard for global information provision across a wide system of activities, while RLG has focussed itself, as a specific resource in the context of research collections.
		OCLC have argued that the OCLC database is too huge as a single object to mirror overseas and too uneconomic to replicate with possibly historic design topology, but OCLC may be able to split access, particularly in the context of particular databases.
		OCLC's automation initiatives with the National Library of China in the early 1980's met with some hurdles and probably reflected the gap then between Chinese optimism for technology and the lack of necessary infrastructure to underpin it.

		Our colleague Tom Storey is the editor of the OCLC Abstracts and I stole the title from his notice about the pilot.
		OCLC will conduct a user survey to gauge feedback during this pilot and will also collect usage statistics that will be evaluated for future applications."

	OCLC Project Opens WorldCat Records to Google (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-04)
		The announcement urged OCLC member libraries to participate in the program in order to increase the visibility of library collections to current and potential patrons, as well as enhance the image of libraries to administrators and funding agencies and improve the quality of material accessible from the Web.
		OCLC launched the project in June 2003 after a year of extensive consultation with library and information industry leaders.
		Clearly, the expansion to include OCLC’s records fits Google’s mission statement to “organize the world’s information and make it universally accessible and useful.” A Google spokesperson pointed to this as part of the company’s effort to reach beyond the open Web, as it has, for example, in including IEEE abstracts.
