Converting Library of Congress Classification (LCC) Numbers to Dewey Decimal Classification (DDC) Numbers : Need Help

I am in search of a platform that whould retrieve the DDC numbers for a book, when we entered the LOC numbers into it. Is there any such platform available over the web? My purpose is very simple. The LOC holds a great number of books in each and every subject areas, even in the regional languages and then assigned a LOC number to it. But in our library we follow the DDC system and we have a massive collection that are also available over the LOC. So if by somehow we can convert the LOC numbers into the DDC, the time spent on classifying a book can greatly be reduced.

 

Updation:

For Example "Aspect of Social customs of the Bodos" by "Dr. K. Brahma" is available over Classify at http://classify.oclc.org/classify2/ClassifyDemo?search-standnum-txt...= . From this site, I can get its LCC number as "DS432.B63". Now my problem is how I can convert the "DS432.B63" number into DDC?

1. This book available over Worldcat at: http://www.worldcat.org/title/aspects-of-social-customs-of-the-bodo...

2. Classification Web at : http://classificationweb.net/min/minaret?app=Session&mod=Login&...

 

I am not very much aware about the following sites

1. http://authorities.loc.gov/cgi-bin/Pwebrecon.cgi?DB=local&PAGE=...
2. http://connexion.oclc.org/corc.html
3. http://www.bl.uk/reshelp/findhelprestype/catblhold/all/allcat.html ?

It all means that we can convert Library of Congress Classification (LCC) Numbers to Dewey Decimal Classification (DDC) Numbers if we use Classweb. Can I have the website of classweb and its annual pricing plan?
