Subject: [OCLC-CAT] OCLC Searching WorldCat Indexes documentation updated

An updated version of the Searching WorldCat Indexes<http://www.oclc.org/support/help/searchingworldcatindexes/Default.htm> documentation is now available. This documentation provides comprehensive information about search indexes used to retrieve records from OCLC WorldCat(r) for these products:

  *   OCLC CatExpress(r) in Connexion browser (copy cataloging)
  *   OCLC FirstSearch(r) (reference)
  *   OCLC WorldCat Discovery

This documentation includes topics such as what search indexes are available, how to construct a command-line or expert search, what MARC fields and subfields are searched with a search label, and so on.

The updated version is a Web-based online help system and has these new features:


*       Improved browsing and searching features, including a search box that lets you search the entire online help system and retrieve a list of results that is similar to what is generated by Web-based search engines

*       Search Index information organized by OCLC product so that it is easier to scan

*       Expandable/collapsible content to reduce page scrolling
