Cataloger's Desktop Coming to the Web.

The Cataloging Distribution Service (CDS) of the Library of Congress (LC) is pleased to announce that its highly popular cataloging documentation tool, Cataloger's Desktop, is moving to the Web. Currently distributed on CD-ROM, Cataloger's Desktop provides access to some of the most widely used cataloging documentation resources in an integrated online system.

Beta testing of a Web version of Cataloger's Desktop will take place from March 1 to April 30, 2004. Access to the beta version is free. Testers are encouraged to offer feedback for fine-tuning the Cataloger's Desktop-Web interface before its scheduled launch as a fee-for-service product in June.
