[Koha] OCLC & Z39.50

[Joel Harbottle]

Hi All,
I would just like to actually correct that OCLC databases are able to be searched via z39.50 in Koha. (I use it on a weekly basis).
OCLC have information about their z39.50 service on their website. I have listed two OCLC websites below, regarding their z39.50 service.
z39.50 Cataloging [Search and retrieval of MARC Records from WorldCat]http://www.oclc.org/z3950/default.htm
z39.50 Configuration Guide for OCLC z39.50 Cataloginghttp://www.oclc.org/support/documentation/z3950/config_guide/
I hope this helps anyone whom is wanting to use OCLC via Koha's z39.50 interface.

Kindest Regards,Joel
