Format Update 2006 With
apologies for multiple postings.
_______________________________________ Full Implementation of OCLC-MARC
Format Update 2006 New searching and indexing capabilities: With the exceptions and Connexion interface differences noted in Technical Bulletin 252, all new searching and indexing capabilities should now be used in all Connexion interfaces. Note that, as OCLC continues to convert data, searches that include the qualifiers for Continuing Resources, Integrating Resources, and Serials may not retrieve complete results sets. New practices for Integrating Resources, including the use of BLvl i: These should be implemented in all Connexion interfaces immediately. Please use the "Guidelines for Integrating Resources" section of Technical Bulletin 252 to update the document "Cataloging Electronic Resources: OCLC-MARC Coding Guidelines" (http://www.oclc.org/support/documentation/worldcat/cataloging/electronicresources/default.htm). The document will be revised online soon. New fields, subfields, and
indicators: These should be used
in all Connexion interfaces immediately. New characters: These should be used in all Connexion interfaces immediately, subject to the revision of Library of Congress Rule Interpretations 1.0E, 1.4F5, and 1.4F6, where appropriate. Data Conversion and
Indexing Upgrade to Connexion client
