    Abstract
    Suggests that many problems encountered by students when using online cataloguers arise from a basic unfamiliarity with record structure and its impact on electronic searching. To illustrate the contention that catalogue instruction should begin with an examination and discussion of MARC records, describes a MARC based presentation delivered during freshman orientation at St. Olaf College, Minnesota. Also includes the sample MARC record and script followed by the instructional librarian
