Tom, I was thinking of starting at an ol Edition page. So someone would discover the book they want using OL, and then could click on a plug-in that would grab the OL ID, create the relevant URL (I'm assuming the one formatted as "_archive_marc"). At that point, I think it would be ideal if the URL was opened in a new browser window. At that point, the user would have to save the MARC XML from the browser page. Even better would be if instead of a page it created an actual download to a file.
