About requesting bulk dissemination

Preparing a dissemination request

You can request disseminations by collection name or by collection name and archival volume. You can request dissemination of multiple collections or multiple archival volumes in a single Support request.

To request bulk dissemination from the archive, send an e-mail to OCLC Support. Your e-mail message should include your OCLC symbol and a list of content that you want disseminated.

An archive technician will process your request and copy the selected content to your institution's OCLC FileX SFTP location.  Support will contact you with retrieval instructions.
