6. Why MARC?
 History of cataloging websites in MARC
 Staff expertise
 Workflow integration
 Richer data element set; prefer MARC > DC crosswalk
 Seed + document-level cataloging;
not synched with WorldCat OAI harvest
 Records available for download / attach holdings
 Leverage existing systems to drive traffic
