OCLC record: Ho Soo Miang: part 4

Source of information:
http://www.worldcat.org/wcidentities/np-ho,%20soo%20miang


General public who has no access to OCLC Cataloguing Account, can do a google search and may also get WorldCat records. If they know how to access WorldCat direct via http://www.worldcat.org/, they can find the records with much ease.


The search at http://www.worldcat.org/ is like OPAC search. Viewers can read the full records, but cannot have access to MARC format.

The search at http://connexion.oclc.org/ that we use in LAS WSQ Level 2 Support Bibliographic Control allows trainees to view MARC records and get links on MARC tags and fields/subfields.


I did a few google searches tonight and noted that under "何舒敏", "Soo-Miang Ho" or "Ho Soo Miang", and "新加坡最早的華文日報 : 叻報 (1881-1932)" I was led to the above WorldCat summary for all my works in various editions, held by 9 +3 libraries worldwide.


Here are the first records I found with OCLC record number:




1 edition published in 1979 in Chinese and held by 3 libraries worldwide






In summary, my work on the history of Lat Pau has a total of 6 records in OCLC WorldCat and they are:


新加坡最早的華文日報 : 叻報 (1881-1932) by 何舒敏( Book )1 edition published in 1979 in Chinese and held by 3 libraries worldwide
OCLC record number: 51791659

It is an interesting experience for me to explore OCLC WorldCat and OCLC Connexion. With this experience, I am able to understand and appreciate detailed cataloguing works done by cataloguers in various countries.


Cheers for the day! Even though I am rather exhausted now!
