How do I request that a collection be added to the knowledge base or for content to be added to the central index?

Answer
To request additions to the WorldCat knowledge base or central index, such as additional collections or additional providers, submit the following E-content request form. The form may also be found on the Cataloging and Metadata knowledge community homepage.
Submitting the form requires an account in the OCLC Community Center. See this documentation for more information on how to sign in.
You can subscribe to JIT (Just-in-Time) updates, which contain information about new content providers and collections that are now available in the WorldCat knowledge base. Although this information eventually appears in our monthly update notes, we want to let you know about them as soon as they are available for your use. There is more information on how to access JIT updates.
