These days, I often find myself wishing that WorldCat was built on a Wiki platform with robust web services built in, so that I could easily correct or add information to the master record when I find errors or omissions, and I could link in to WorldCat to pull out basic bibliographic information that I could incorporate into resource discovery tools built and maintained locally. The WorldCat API is certainly a step in the right direction, but we have a long way to go. Is anybody at OCLC thinking along these lines and/or working on this?
