Who will change to the New OCLC Cataloging Service, and when?
You Choose your Day One
• You can try out the service anytime after June 30, 2002.
• Your current cataloging authorization will work with the new cataloging service
• You choose how to migrate– All at once or individually
Migration Considerations – SaveFile• The Online SaveFile is different
depending on the interface used– Records started using Passport or
CatME must be completed using Passport or CatME
– Records started using the new cataloging service must be completed using the new service
Migration Considerations – Export• The new cataloging service will
support:– TCP/IP Export– Export to a file
• The TCP/IP export is direct to the library system, and may require access through your firewall
• The export record format is the same as with Passport!!!

Life After Passport• End-of-support date for Passport for
Cataloging12/31/2002
– Will still work, but there will be no testing on new operating systems, no bug fixes, support will ask users to try CatME or the new OCLC cataloging service
• End-of-life date for Passport for Cataloging12/31/2003
– Will no longer work with OCLC Cataloging• These dates do not apply for ILL, UL, or
NAD
The Windows Client• Optional Windows Interface• For those features that are not currently
supported by a browser• Same navigation as the browser platform
– Easy to switch between platforms• Initial release will include online activity
plus macros• Future releases will include offline local
file and batch features• Release expected first half of 2003
CatME… an Alternative• An alternative to Passport… an
interim step towards migrating to the new OCLC cataloging service
• If you’d like to move from Passport, but the new OCLC cataloging service isn’t right for you yet, consider CatME
• CatME will be discontinued in the future only after all functionality is added to the new OCLC cataloging service; date has not been set
Functionality
• Supports all Cataloging functionality– NACO support for creating/replacing authority
records added October 2001– New “terminal” module to allow you to telnet
to your local system to run macros between your local system and CatME added in February 2002
• Work online, interactively, as in Passport, or work offline with records in a local file
• Batch searching and processing is an option
CatME Software
• CatME 2.10 currently available for download from the OCLC Web site
• CatME 2.10 will be available on the OCLC Access Suite compact disc 2nd quarter 2002
