There are two ways to upload MARC files to OCLC, via WorldShare or via SFTP. WorldShare is more user-friendly. However, when problems occur or when the MARC file is larger than 1GB, please try SFTP.

.Field 001 (which contains the Drupal NID) is used as LSN for OCLC. This field is used by OCLC as the Local System Number (LSN) to produce Unresolved Cross Reference and Bibliographic Cross Reference reports that list each OCLC control number across from the LSN. This information can be used to index the OCLC numbers in our local system. Indexing the OCLC control number links our library's records to other WorldCat services (e.g. WorldCat Discovery).
After the file upload, it will usually take OCLC 48 hours to process it. If the Reports are present, then it means the upload was successful. To check the reports:
If there are only a few records with error, it is easy to edit them in WorldShare.
