[SLA-SF] Worldcat open to everyone

[Lapachet, Jaye]

I have heard of this project recently as well and am glad to see that
more records will be released. I have to agree with the librarian who
said she had never seen a WorldCat record show up in Google search
results. I just did a search for 'chocolat', the movie and book and
didn't get a WorldCat record. Same result with Grimm's Fairy Tales. I
did get Amazon results. It will be interesting to see how it changes
search results as well as requests for information from people who
search Google.
