Note

  • Display Note: Abstract: Personnel in the Public Services Division and in the Cataloging and Metadata Services Department were surveyed to determine how they rated the importance of various cataloging services, and to gauge their satisfaction with these services. The two groups differed in the importance and satisfaction scores that they assigned to certain cataloging services. The issues raised by respondents suggested that Cataloging and Metadata Services should take a more proactive approach to communication with Public Services, and indicated the need for further research.
