Symptom

Regardless of what I enter at Online Catalog Direct to Multiple OCLC Numbers in the Service Configuration, under WorldCat Registry -> Online Catalog, it does not work.

 

Resolution

The feature has two modes.

It can either repeat the OCLC numbers in the form "oclcno=...&oclcno=...":

https://example.com/?oclcno=44504637&oclcno=316869232&oclcno=768774243

 
Or in the form "oclcnos=...,...,..." (percent encoded):

https://example.com/?oclcnos=44504637%2C316869232%2C768774243

 
In both cases, "oclcno", and "oclcnos" are fixed strings.
 
Other patterns are not supported at the moment.
