Dewey Cutter program

This Windows application is used with Connexion browser to automatically provide cutter numbers from the OCLC Four-Figure Cutter Tables (Cutter Four-Figure Table and Cutter-Sanborn Four-Figure Table) upon input of text. The program is similar to the Dewey Cutter macro that is used with Connexion client, Passport, and CatME.

Digital Archive

Connexion also allows you to catalog resources that have been digitally preserved through the OCLC Digital Archive. The Digital Archive provides a long-term solution for the life cycle management of digital collections that is safe, reliable, and standards-based. A format protection service ensures continued access to collections as technology evolves. You can work with the OCLC Preservation Service Centers to prepare your content for digital storage or use OCLC tools to create metadata within your current workflow.
