Abstract
Powerful results can be achieved when librarians combine their knowledge access skills with the OCLC (Online Computer Library Centre) CORC (Cooperative Online Resource Catalogue) service. As a state‐of‐the‐art Web‐based metadata creation system, CORC is optimised for creating bibliographic records and pathfinders (subject bibliographies) for electronic resources. CORC has evolved from an idea in OCLC’s Office of Research through system development, to a core OCLC product offering in less than two years. As CORC use steadily increases worldwide, librarians continually find innovative ways to incorporate the service into their library workflow. Details about the OCLC CORC service, and examples of how three libraries are using CORC, are given. This is just the beginning for this cornerstone of OCLC’s strategic plan.
