Abstract
A project to convert and make available current MARC records in a local online file is described. The University of Calgary Libraries use the IBM DOBIS integrated library system to support Acquisitions, Cataloguing, Circulation, and the Online catalogue. Rather than deriving cataloguing copy from a network or bibliographic utility, the library subscribes to the National Library's Canadian MARC Record Distribution Services, mounts the records on DOBIS and transfers them for ordering/cataloguing purposes.
