Description
User Story: ''As a library cataloger I need to create a set of metadata elements in OCLC for a published book that will describe it both for managing it in the Library’s collection and making it discoverable (status and existence) by Library patrons in OCLC and replicate that bibliographic record in the local integrated library system.''
