Precision One Cataloging System ®

The Precision One Cataloging System is a cataloging resource tool and more! Precision One is an extensive resource database that will allow you access to over two million MARC records, including new releases, pre-1968 titles and Library of Congress records. This easy-to-use cataloging tool is designed to make your retrospective conversion and on-going cataloging more accurate, efficient and cost effective.

Maximizing Hit Rate

Precision One offers a number of time-saving features that will assist you in your library’s cataloging efforts. Searches can be conducted by Title, Author, Publication date, and ISBN/LCCN. When you have found the record you are looking for, simply edit, save it to a file, and immediately import into your automation system. When editing records you have the option to add or delete tags and subfields, print spine and pocket labels, as well as take advantage of the convenient MARC Help feature. MARC Help provides a quick reference and examples of MARC coding.
