Abstract

Cataloguing departments have faced enourmous transitions during the last 20 years due to technolgical advances, changing administrative goals, and shrinking budgets. The responsibilities of professional cataloguers have greatly expanded and now include management, budgeting, and planning. Research indicates that entry-level cataloguers feel unprepared for managerial responsibilities by their graduate education. Educators and practitioners should examine the need for potential cataloguing managers and consider changing library school curricula in an effective and realistic manner to support this trend

Abstract

Reports on the results of a survey of 79 entry level cataloguers in US academic libraries designed to gather data that would characterize their opinions and experiences of cataloguing work. This information might then suggest an approach to addressing the difficulties in recruiting and retaining qualified applicants to cataloguing positions. Questions were asked on: prior job experience; library education; current work environment; career goals; and the reasons why these librarians believe they may or may not remain in cataloguing. The study also revealed attitudes to cataloguing expressed by library educators and professional colleagues. Many deficiencies in library education in preparation for cataloguing were perceived by respondents

Abstract

Despite the tradition of division between technical and public services in academic libraries, the work of each area can conflict at times, often due to a major technical services project interrupting use of the collections. Instead of causing tension between these areas, it may be appropriate to reexamines user services, particularly if the collection serves a unique group, such as a music community. In an area of diminished resources, such a project can serve as a stimulus for redesigning traditional work patterns and may even enhance service to a sometimes overlooked patron group

Abstract

Despite adequate documentation of the monograph cataloguing backlogs in academic libraries, backlogs of music materials for the entire US library community have gone unreported. In order to confirm the existence of music backlogs, and address questions concerning their existence and growth, what causes them to continue, and what needs to be done to eliminate them: a survey was undertaken of institutional subscribers to the Music Cataloging Bulletin. The survey asked libraries to quantify their uncatalogued scores and sound recordings and to describe their music cataloguing staff and procedures. Of the 358 perticipating libraries, 77 % reported having music backlogs. These backlogs grew primarily as a result of large acquisitions and gifts without corresponding staff to process them. Respondents also cited lack of knowledgeable staff as a deterrent to the reduction and elimination of backlogs
