No deal with OCLC - Kungliga biblioteket

"The National Library has ended negotiations with OCLC, as the parties could not successfully come to terms on a contract....The negotiations primarily dealt with two issues: on the one hand, the conditions for uploading the Swedish union catalogue Libris database into OCLC’s WorldCat;the question of license/ownership for copying bibliographic records from WorldCat for use in Libris.... A fundamental condition for the entire Libris collaboration is voluntary participation. Libraries that catalogue in Libris can take out all their bibliographic records and incorporate them instead into another system, or use them in anyway the library finds suitable.
