OCLC has created a new suite of services and tools, branded as Syndeo, to meet the needs of national and regional union catalogs and resource sharing networks. This initiative adds an additional layer of tools and customizations to the global WorldCat platform. National libraries or regional networks often provide bibliographic services or union catalogs with specific authority files, record ingestion or distribution mechanisms, or other customized workflows. WorldCat, as a global resource, may not easily accommodate these customized requirements.
