At 2:21:34 p.m. EDT on August 11th, 2005, Anne Slane, a cataloger for Worthington (Ohio) Libraries, entered holdings information for the book The Monkees: The Day-By-Day Story of the 60s Pop Sensation, becoming the one billionth holding record in the WorldCat database.
The wording on this confused me a bit, but I'm thinking that they are saying WorldCat has 1 billion holdings records, and not 1 billion unique bibliographic records. (It's over 61 million bibliographic records now.) Impressive, nonetheless. Congrats, Ms. Slane!
