Who Should Attend?
OCLC strongly recommends that newly assigned copy catalogers take Connexion Client Module 1 - WorldCat, MARC, and Client Basics; Connexion Client Module 2 - Basic Bibliographic Searching; and Connexion Client Module 3 - Basic Editing and Record Processing in sequence. Together, these three modules provide the foundation of knowledge for newly assigned copy catalogers to work successfully with Connexion Client.
