WorldCat Resource Sharing is a global network that connects library collections and services via the web. It allows institutions to share resources more easily. The network minimizes the time and money spent fulfilling requests while maximizing customer satisfaction by delivering items quickly. As internet users don't care where information is located but do care how fast they can access it, quick delivery through the network represents satisfied customers that may otherwise go elsewhere. The network contains over a billion holdings and can fulfill 95% of requests, making libraries seem like one-stop providers for their customers' needs.
