Anyone here formerly use Worldcat?
I use it quite frequently. Any problems?

Well, today, it's been requiring me to prove I'm not a bot, at length and with great difficulty. I believe I know why, maybe, though I wonder if this has been happening to anyone else.

It did the same with me few days ago, however without boring me very much, if I correctly remember. It didn't today.

If I may modify the topic a little, why do some libraries adhere to Worldcat and others don't?

even some of those that are mirrored (?) by Worldcat are only approximately , in different ways, partially, etc. This is one of those great mysteries, along with the nature of the OCLC number and why, oh, for example, when you click "view all formats and languages" on Worldcat for one of Villa-Lobos' quartets you get a list containing practically all of them (and if you make an interloan request for one of them you may not get the one you want 
. Have had such things happen to me.)
(Then again, Worldcat is being much nicer to me today. At some point it may treat me like a bot again, of course... and I don't mean one of IM Banks' snarky drones. I only wish I had their sense of humor...)
