Problems with article searching in library catalog

WHAT: Article search results do not appear in library catalog search (WorldCat Local).

WHEN: 08/09/2018


Current Status: Open

Description: When searching for articles with search limited to Pacific Lutheran University, WorldCat Local gives no results.

Service(s) Impacted: Library

Workarounds: Search in article databases (see Research Guides for recommendations) or set WorldCat Local to Libraries Worldwide (but be aware you are searching other libraries as well as PLU).


Root Cause / Continuous Improvement: OCLC, the provider of WorldCat Local, has fixed the problem.
