Q. Can I save searches and make lists in WorldCat UMD?

Hello,

Unfortunately, when we switched from the WorldCat Local to WorldCat Discovery WorldCat UMD interface, we lost the ability to log in and make lists.  We have contacted the WorldCat database provider and have learned that this functionality may be returning in the future, but there is not yet an estimated date for it.

However, you can easily export WorldCat UMD search results into the citation manager EndNote, creating lists of resources within that citation manager.  Here's how to export citations to EndNote from WorldCat UMD.  Here is another Libraries' guide on EndNote.

You can also save items and searches in the Classic Catalog, which you can get to from the libraries’ homepage by selecting the "Classic Catalog" radio button.  The only issue with this is that these searches will not include all our e-books and article-level results (which can only be found in WorldCat Discovery).
