I would be interested in this as well.  Hopefully folks will reply to the list.

Subject: [SERIALST] OCLC eSerials Holdings service vs. OCLC WorldCat Knowledge base

 

Dear fellow Serialisters,

Are there any libraries that have experience or knowledge of OCLC eSerials Holdings service and OCLC WorldCat Knowledge base? If you have OCLC WorldCat Knowledge base, do you need to have OCLC eSerials Holdings service too? Do these two resources complement each other? What are the advantages/disadvantages of having both or one or the other?

Any information you can share on the differences and similarities between these two resources will be greatly appreciated.

Best regards,

Denise
