 * 1. either the collection number, or the countryId number
 * 2. whether it is the collection, or countryId number
 * 3. either the collection title, or the countryId name

When you search http://www.WorldCat.org/ for a title, you will find the OCLC number in details section of the edition. Alternatively, it may be shown in the URL immediately after the "oclc" text. Enter this number in the template as the first parameter.

An optional parameter disp can be specified, allowing the user to control the link text.
