I use it regularly for resolving cataloguing problems, for reviewing cataloguing procedures, and for keeping up with changes in standards. The resources on it I use most are: CONSER documentation, Descriptive Cataloguing of Rare Books, Library of Congress Rule Interpretations and the Full MARC standards (the concise MARC codes are of course freely available on the Library of Congress website, but occasionally the added information in the full codes is required). From time to time I have also needed to look up the cataloguing documentation for other non-book materials. The online version of AACR2 can also be useful sometimes, because of the searching capabilities, though normally I prefer to use the printed version.
