How can I request a change to my work’s record in WorldCat?
Answer
OCLC offers several options that allow you to report corrections and deletions directly to our WorldCat Metadata Quality Control Team. For all requests, include your name and email address in case questions arise.
-
bibchange@oclc.org: Use this email address to resolve issues with bibliographic records for your titles
-
authfile@oclc.org: Use this email address to report errors in your name, personal information or attribution on records. Note: Please also reference Instructions and Guidelines for Reporting WorldCat Bibliographic and Authority Record Changes or Duplicates.
There is also a WorldCat and Authority Record Quality Control Request form you can submit to request a record change. For requests requiring proof, print the summary page of the completed form and send it (i.e., fax or mail) along with the supporting documentation.
