RSC Publishing supplying OCLC MARC records to our eBook customers for free
= = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = =
Last year, we did a survey to the library community through listservs asking your views on MARC records. Thank you very much for your feedback, which has been very beneficial – we now have some exciting news as a result:
RSC Publishing is very pleased to announce that we have now signed an agreement with OCLC to supply all our RSC eBook Collection and Subject Collections customers with OCLC MARC records free of charge.
OCLC WORLDCAT COLLECTION SETS SERVICE
To sign up to receive these MARC records through the OCLC WorldCat Collection Sets Service
GO TO http://collectionsets.oclc.org/JustLooking?cmd=displayElectronicSets
OCLC AUTHORISATION NUMBER AND PASSWORD
If you have an OCLC authorisation number and password, you can use the online form
GO TO http://collectionsets.oclc.org/JustLooking?cmd=requestLogin
DON’T HAVE AN OCLC AUTHORISATION NUMBER?
If you don’t have an OCLC authorisation number, you may submit the PDF version of the form and either fax or mail it to OCLC. You will not be making any payments for RSC Publishing MARC records – these are at cost of us.
GO TO http://collectionsets.oclc.org/forms/wcs_orderform.pdf

These free RSC Publishing supplements have moved:
Since January 2011, all online news articles are published on the Chemistry World news page
GO TO www.rsc.org/chemistryworld
They are still free for everyone to access. Plus, a selection of the content will be published in print as part of the Research section of Chemistry World. The original RSC Publishing research, on which the articles are based, will be free for a limited time.
- Issue 12, 2010, was the final issue of each of the three supplements
- All published issues will be freely accessible from the RSC website.
Originally launched back in 2004 to provide a news service drawing together coverage from all RSC publications, the supplements have provided a vehicle for wider promotion of the most cutting-edge science published in RSC journals. By moving to Chemistry World, articles will have the opportunity to reach even wider audiences.
