As its name implies, the Online Card Catalog (OCC) is the index that
provides bibliographic access only to the collection of the
National Emergency Training Center's (NETC) Learning Resource Center
(LRC). While the LRC is the on-campus library for the staff and students of
the National Fire Academy (NFA) and the Emergency Management Institute
(EMI), the OCC will function for Internet users as a database on fire
service and emergency management topics. Its fundamental service to
Internet users is one of identification. The OCC identifies
published resources on topics of professional interest to fire service and
emergency management personnel.
