Set language
Discover how to change the language of the OCLC Meridian user interface.
Overview
The OCLC Meridian user interface can be viewed in multiple languages. This page is about the language of the interface only. For more information about the language selection when creating or editing an entity, see Language of entity.
Changing the language affects several aspects of how the user interface displays. These are:
- Static text such as buttons, facets, and titles of sections within the entity viewer will be translated into the chosen language.
- When a search is executed, search results in the chosen language will be returned first.
- Entity data will display in the chosen language if it exists.
Note: Entity data is not actively translated.
- If the label for a linked entity does not exist in the chosen language, the label will display in English, if available.
- If the label for an entity does not exist in the chosen language or English, the entity ID will display instead of the label.
