Scope and Use of CCF 

Following are the scope and use of CCF:   

1. To permit the exchange of records between groups of information agencies, including libraries, abstracting and indexing services, referral systems and other kinds of information agencies. 
2. To permit the use of a single set of computer programs to manipulate records received from various informations agencies regardless of their internal record-creation practices. 
3. To serve as the basis of format for an agency's own bibliographic or factual database, by providing a list of useful data elements. To assist the development of individual systems, Unesco has published 'Implementation Notes' for users of the Common Communication Formats (CCF).
