Title

On-the-job training for catalog librarians : a case history of a formal approach to training

Source

Cataloging and classification quarterly. 7(1987) no.4, S.79-93

Year

1987

Abstract

A training program for new catalogers is described which uses class sessions and a training manual in addition to actual cataloging. The exercises in the manual are designed to stimulate discussion, with the ultimate aim of developing judgment and an ability to analyze, as well as ensuring the mastery of cataloging principles. Classes were held over a period of twelve to thirteen weeks; some were attended by a few experienced paraprofessional and clerical staff members as well as by new librarians. The primary benefit of a formal training program is that, ideally, it provides not only a structured learning situation but also promotes the understanding of cataloging as a structured system.
