About our OCLC status page integration

OCLC (Global library organization providing technology services and research for libraries) is a an Education solution that StatusGator has been monitoring since November 2020. Over the past about 4 years, we have collected data on on more than 1,099 outages that affected OCLC users. When OCLC publishes downtime on their status page, they do so across 35 components and 2 groups using 3 different statuses: up, warn, and down which we use to provide granular uptime metrics and notifications.

If you're wondering, "Is OCLC down?", or need to know its current status, we've got you covered. Our platform tracks every reported outage, performance issue, and maintenance window to ensure you're informed. Whether OCLC is experiencing a problem now or has recently resolved one, our detailed history keeps you updated.

Many StatusGator users monitor OCLC to get notified when it's down or has an outage. We've sent more than 1,700 notifications to our users about OCLC incidents, providing transparency and peace of mind. You can get alerts by signing up for a free StatusGator account.

  • Early Warning Signals

    If we detect a potential OCLC outage or other issue before it was reported on the official status page we will send an Early Warning Signal notification to StatusGator subscribers. We can often detect issues before they are officially acknowledged by the provider, giving you a head start on resolving any potential problems.

  • Down Notifications

    If OCLC is having system outages or experiencing other critical issues, red down notifications appear on the status page. In most cases, it means that core functions are not working properly, or there is some other serious customer-impacting event underway.

  • Warning Notifications

    Warn notifications are used when OCLC is undergoing a non-critical issue like minor service issues, performance degradation, non-core bugs, capacity issues, or problems affecting a small number of users.

  • Maintenance Notifications

    OCLC does not post separate notifications for planned maintenance work so we are unable to send notifications when maintenance windows begin. If you need OCLC maintenance notifications, please email us.

  • Status Messages

    At this time, we do not collect status messages from the OCLC status page. If you need this capability, please be sure to reach out.

  • Status Details

    At this time, we do not collect detailed status updates from the OCLC status page. If you need this capability, please be sure to reach out.

  • Component Status Filtering

    Because OCLC has several components, each with their individual statuses, StatusGator can differentiate the status of each component in our notifications to you whenever a particular component is down. This means, you can filter your status page notifications based on the services, regions, or components you utilize. This is an essential feature for complex services with many components or services spread out across many regions.
