Description

Education and Training for Catalogers and Classifiers discusses the education of librarians, particularly the teaching of cataloging as part of that education. It argues that relevant, high quality, library education and on-the-job training programs are necessary in preparing librarians to meet the challenges of understanding the issues of bibliographic control and relating a library's catalog to regional, national, and international bibliographic databases.
