For additional locally selected lists of Connexion commands, see: "OCLC Connexion Client: Lists of Commands."
For more complete lists and discussion of commands, see the OCLC Connexion Client Documentation page: a comprehensive set of reference documents on many aspects of the Connexion client, covering topics from getting started to the finer points of searching, using save files, and editing. This set now includes a Connexion Client Cataloging Quick Reference page, compiling information into a single (somewhat long) document.
