    Abstract
    For at least 100 years, cataloguers have been committed to creating perfect bibliographic records of their local resources for their local users. With the advent of automation, shared cataloguing and electronic remote resources, their task has been made much more complex as their product has become universally available and visible; and, contrary to earlier naive expectations, much more expensive. As a profession, they survived automation and adapted, but now contracting out (outsourcing) has become a new threat to their very existence, or at least to their numbers working at local libraries. Based on a great number of calls for change in the library literature, appeals to cataloguers to make a concerted effort to change the way they do things as their product is still essential for good library service

    Abstract
    Rather than being outsourced, catalog departments should become the agents for accessing departmental resources in a university or college. Trained, practicing catalogers are able to create MARC records that are a perfect fit for the OPAC. In an era of declining monies for resources, cataloging professionals ensure that all available materials are accessible via a unified database which is as close as any computer. Departmental libraries would continue to be in charge of all other aspects of their collections, but would not be responsible for loading information into the catalog

    Abstract
    Cataloging managers at the University of New Mexico General Library, feeling under pressure from colleagues and administrators to become more efficient, have introduced a flexible management style in the traditional Catalog Department. Instead of pushing staff to work harder and faster, they developed a point system, or quota, for staff catalogers. This allowed them to implement flextime and other liberal options, such as working at home, or in other campus libraries. Expectations of quality and quantity of production have been clarified, and staff morale, generally, has improved, as people feel they have more control over their work. Although still cataloging in the traditional mode, managers feel that improved flexibility will allow them to become more proactive and tackle anticipated changes in a positive manner.

    Abstract
    Under the leadership of Ruth Carter's generation, cooperative, shared cataloging grew and flourished among academic and research libraries. The authors provide an overview of trends and challenges from a golden age of expanding budgets and international cooperation during the 1970's and 1980's and later responses to the economic retrenchment and demographic changes of the 1990's and early 2000's. Responses to current challenges, including the impact of outsourced cataloging, increasing complexity of cataloging rules, and emerging technological options, are discussed.
