    Abstract
    Information technology (IT) encompassing an integrated library system, computer hardware and software, CDROM, Internet, and other domains, including MARC 21 formats, CORC, and metadata standards (Dublin Core, TEI, XML, RDF) has produced far-reaching changes in the job functions of catalogers. Libraries are now coming up with a new set of recruiting requirements for these positions. This paper aims to review job advertisements published in American Libraries (AL) and College and Research Libraries News (C&RL NEWS) to assess the impact of the use of IT in libraries an job requirements and qualifications for catalogers.

    Abstract
    Despite witnessing the enormous success of cooperative cataloguing programmes in Europe and North America, libraries in Saudi Arabia and other Arabian Gulf states have made no concerted afforts in initiating similar programmes. Emphasizes the need for cooperation in cataloguing, especially of local materials. Due to unavailability of cataloguing copy from the Library of Congress and other sources for a high percentage of imprints from Arab countries and in the absence of bibliographic cooperation, libraries are doing redundant cataloguing and thus wasting both time and money. Reviews the current state of bibliographic cooperation, discusses prospects for further cooperation, and highlights difficulties in cooperation. Concludes with recommendations that the King Fahd National Library develop a national cooperative cataloguing programme with specific goals, set guidelines and prepare rules and procedures for participating libraries to contribute in various cooperative cataloguing programmes in the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia

    Abstract
    The article provides background information on the processing of Arabic materials using a combination of local and modified cataloging rules and the creation of the Arabic card catalog at the King Fahd University of Petroleum and Minerals Library (KFUPM). It also gives a brief history of KFUPM library automation and then presents various options considered for developing the Arabized version of DOBIS/LIBIS. Finally, the functions and features of the Arabic online catalog are described

    Abstract
    Studies have revealed that LIS programs of the four library schools in Saudi Arabia are traditional and their cataloging courses do not cover new trends and issues in the organization of information. As a result, graduates of these schools lack the required skills for various cataloging positions, especially in an electronic library environment. Once hired, they need to embark on a continuing education program to develop these skills. The paper aims to review continuing education programs for catalogers offered by various library schools, human resource development institutions, automation vendors, and professional associations in Saudi Arabia. Several other continuing education opportunities available to catalogers, such as Web-based training, professional reading, and electronic discussions lists, are also discussed.

    Abstract
    Compares the features and capabilities of 2 CD-ROM databases containing MARC bibliographic records for current and retrospective cataloguing: BiblioFile and CDMARC Bibliographic. When size, coverage, update frequency, search and retrieval capabilities, and record display were compared it was concluded that CDMARC Bibliographic had a clear edge over BiblioFile in most respects. However, BiblioFile has better update frequency and coverage. In CDMARC Bibliographic, while scrolling through the Library of Congress shelflist, collection development librarians can compare the extent of their holdings against those of the Library of Congress

    Abstract
    Existing subject headings lists and classification schemes are inadequate to deal with the very specific and rapidly developing subjects of theses and dissertations, and as a result libraries find it costly and time consuming to perform original and full cataloguing of these materials. Many libraries have been forced to improvise on descriptive and subject cataloguing to reduce the processing cost. Describes the improvisations of the Library of King Fahd University of Petroleum and Minerals in Dharan, Saudi Arabia, in cataloguing local and foreign theses and dissertations

    Abstract
    MARC, variantly known as LCMARC and USMARC, has been adopted as a bibliographic record exchange format by libraries the world over. To accomodate the unique requirements of automated systems, geographic regions, and scripts, the format has been modified to various degrees. There are also extensions to MARC which consist of additional content designations: fields, subfields, indicator values, and characters. While the USMARC records will fit into the extended format, the extended format's information will not fit into pure USMARC. DMARC (DOBIS MARC) is one of the extended formats of USMARC. Describes the structure of the DMARC format including content designation. EBCDIC, the internal processing of DOBIS and the support of Arabic text prepared by King Fahd University of Petroleum and Minerals (KFUPM). Discusses USMARC format integration and its impact on DOBIS/LIBIS

    Abstract
    Some of the problems in the cataloging of Arabic script materials are due to the peculiarities of Arabic books not generally found in European or American imprints, such as the lack of a chief source of information, missing date of publication, mixing up the term impression with edition, etc. Other problems result from the difficulties in determining the form of Arabic personal and corporate names, lack of standard Arabic subject headings, poor coverage of Islamic and Arabic literature, history, culture, customs, and religion in Western classification systems, limitation of the MARC format in dealing with the requirements of Arabic script materials, and the lower standard of cataloging education and training. The paper discusses all of these problems in detail and highlights various attempts, both successful and unsuccessful, made to resolve them.
