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: 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

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: 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

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: With the availability of full-text journals in CD-ROM and aggregator databases, libraries need to provide bibliographic and online access to these titles through the OPAC. The article reviews the experience of the King Fahd University of Petroleum & Minerals Library in providing analytical cataloging to the journal-title level of full-text CD-ROM databases, including Business Periodicals Ondisc (BPO), IEEE/ IEE Electronic Library (IEL), Applied Science & Technology Plus (AS&TP), and Readers' Guide Abstracts (RGA).

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
