Arabization and Arabic searching in WorldCat Discovery (OCLC Event Series, Summer 2023)

AMICAL’s OCLC Committee in conjunction with OCLC has organized an event series offering updates about the Arabization and Arabic searching project, data sync, and resource sharing.

Presenter: Omar Farhoud (Senior Library Services Consultant, OCLC)

Back in May 2022, Omar Farhoud, previously of the Lebanese American University, joined OCLC. In his new role, he has been working with our Development Team to progress the Arabic features of our system, such as searching and making sure that Arabic is indexed correctly. During this session, Omar will give a live demo of the system to show you the work that has been completed.
