The following is a list of macros used in the Collection division. All macros except the Connexion macros were created with MacroExpress.

Connexion

OCLC Connexion comes with about 15 macros pre-loaded for catalogers to use when creating and editing records. Some examples are:

  • Add33x generates a set of 336, 337, and 338 fields (content, media, and carrier types) based on cataloger input, and is useful when creating or updating records to RDA.
  • GenerateAuthorityRecord creates a bare-bones authority record from a 1xx or 7xx field, and streamlines the entry of common authority information such as associated place and language.
  • GenerateERecord derives an e-resource record from the record currently being worked on (for example, if a cataloger discovers that the book they are working with has been digitized by the Hathi Trust, but a record has not yet been created in OCLC for the digitized version)


In the Connexion client interface, macros can be accessed at Tools > Macros > Manage (or Ctrl+Alt+Shift+G). Connexion macros can be edited, adapted, or created from scratch with the Edit or New Macro commands; more information can be found in the Macros section of OCLC's Connexion client documentation.

Many librarians and libraries have made collections of their own OCLC macros available: Joel Hahn has a number of useful macro resources, as does Walter Nickeson.
