Record sources
Demand driven acquisitions: OCLC records through WorldCat Cataloging Partners, ordered by EBL. The records are also available directly through EBL, but OCLC is the preferred source.
Title-by-title purchasing only: EBL records, OCLC records or YBP records (if we opt for them).
You can view some sample EBL records at http://ebl.wufoo.com/forms/sample-free-ebl-marc-records/.
Info from EBL: http://blog.eblib.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/12/OCLC-WCP-Cataloging-Program.pdf
For titles that you purchase directly from EBL, you can download records (in a mrc format) from your EBL admin portal. If you want OCLC records for purchased titles I can send you instructions on how to set that up in the OCLC service center (this would have to be done after we setup your EBL account).
If you establish a demand-driven profile directly with EBL then records will automatically be sent to you on a regular basis (e.g. weekly, monthly, quarterly - the schedule is your choice). If you want OCLC records for a demand driven program (either for an EBL or YBP profile) then we'll manually order the records. When you receive OCLC you'll get notified from them when the records are ready for pickup.
