You might also want to look into a session at SAA 2010 that discussed
this issue, Session 604 - Bibliographic Control of Archival Materials:
The Impact of Library Standards on Archives.
Quoting Nathan Tallman <[log in to unmask]>:
> Just out of curiosity, is anyone using an online catalog that is entirely
> EAD-based? I know many institutions catalog monographs and other items
> more suitable for MARC, but not everyone might. It's certainly possible and
> an interesting idea.
>
> On the flip side, does anyone's traditional online catalog index EAD as well
> as MARC? Maybe a federated search of some sort. Seems like I remember
> seeing one.

> Happy Friday!
