PAGE 24

Bibliographic Description : MARC Positives : Can encode a very granular amount of data Very well adopted and works well with machine readers Negatives Not very human readable High learning curve Mixes data with display (as commonly implemented) 24 dLOC Training (7/29/2013) Gainesville, FL Mark Sullivan
