Abstract
Book announcements in the health sciences and in fiction were used as samples to observe the presence of bibliographic records and to monitor the rate of addition of institution symbols in the OCLC Online Union Catalog.

The rates of addition of holding libraries suggest that libraries used the health science titles in an essentially linear manner, while added locations for the fiction titles follow an exponential curve.
