Abstract
The article describes problems in the implementation of the CCF (Common Communication Format), namely the use of content designators and record structure, taking into account the actual application of the format in Yugoslavia. Particular content designators are viewed from the aspect of different cataloguing rules, while the possibilities of structuring records are described and exemplified. Format conversion is described on the basis of the authors' experience of converting from the UNIMARC format to the CCF. The definition of new fields/subfields in the CCF is analysed. The efficient use of the CCF in a particular information community depends on the aim and purpose of the use of exchanged records.
