For an example of a WorldCat record with linking institution records,look at OCLC record control number 2318292.

RLG migrating libraries that requested institution records are now authorized to create and maintain their institution records online using the Connexion browser, OCLC Web-based cataloging interface. If you have any problems with your authorization, please contact BCR.

As noted last week, the institution record indexes, including the new ir: index, are not currently operational, but are expected to be available mid-June. Connexion client institution record support will be available with version 2.00, scheduled for late June.

For further information about institution records support in the Connexion browser, see the Connexion browser online documentation www.oclc.org/support/documentation/connexion/browser/cataloging/inst_records/ and the Connexion Browser Institution Records tutorial at www5.oclc.org/downloads/tutorials/connexion/browser/ir_browser.htm
