Using CAT ME on a Laptop

Abstract

Since we became a test library for version 4.0 of the OCLC Cataloging Micro Enhancer software (CAT ME), several catalogers at Duke University Library have been experimenting with using laptop computers to edit OCLC records. We're investigating the advantages of offline editing during normal working hours, editing by the cataloger, and the convenience of working at a desk where books to be cataloged as well as reference sources (e.g., classification schedules and Cutter tables) are handy. We hope to determine if it's efficient for catalogers to do their own entry.
