OCLC and Google are exchanging parts of their data in a way that will likely change the way we view full-text scanned books:
- Google is providing linking information to OCLC in order to make Google Book Search items discoverable through WorldCat.
- OCLC is providing their cataloging records via libraries who are members of the Google Book Project in order to enhance Google Book Search, primarily by linking directly to WorldCat records.
I doubt that it will be long before this will be able to be used to enhance library OPACS.
