Abstract:

Describes and analyzes the following three issues which elicit strong but divergent views among cataloging faculty, students, and practitioners, and seem to have done so for as long as people have been writing about cataloging education: (1) prac-tice versus theory in cataloging education; (2) dividing book and nonbook cataloging into separate classes versus teaching the cataloging of all materials in a single class; and (3) what setting is best for teaching cataloging–formal graduate school courses, on the job training, or continuing education offerings.
