-{{:resources:hpb:technical:connexion_interface_640_03.jpg?250  |Connexion interface  }} CERL is now, for the first time, able to offer an editing facility for HPB Database records. Those organisations that have contributed records are given the opportunity to edit those records directly in the HPB, through OCLC’s Connexion facilities. Connexion is OCLC's cataloguing service: a powerful, flexible suite of tools with built-in access to WorldCat, used by many libraries to create and edit bibliographic and authority records.
-The HPB is made available through the OCLC Connexion Browser, which is MARC21 based and Unicode compliant, supports record
-creation in Latin script and record viewing in a number of scripts including Cyrillic, Greek, and Hebrew, and which offers interfaces in English and French. Records may be exported in MARC-8 format, either to a file for downloading or to a local system via TCP/IP. A recording of a demonstration of the Connexion browser is now available at [[https://oclc.webex.com/oclc/lsr.php?AT=pb&SP=MC&rID=25177687&rKey=C872B65B7E797780|Using the Connexion Browser to access the HPB]]. Alternatively, you may simply view the {{:resources:hpb:technical:connexion_browserhpb.pdf|power point slides}}.
-In addition, the HPB is available through OCLC’s Connexion Client, MARC21 based and Unicode compliant Windows-based software that supports record creation in Latin and some non-Latin scripts (such as Cyrillic, Greek and Hebrew), and interfaces in English, German, Spanish as well as a number  of non-European languages. Records may be exported in MARC-8 or Unicode (UTF-8) format, either to a file on a PC or to a local system via TCP/IP.
