Ti YU

Abstract

The study conducted a questionnaire survey on all technological university and college libraries in Taiwan. Through descriptive statistical analysis (e.g. percentage and mean) and correlation statistical analysis, the study tried to explore four issues as follows: 1. challenges and strategies of cataloging operations in interviewed libraries; 2. the difference in the frequency of occurrence among challenges and strategies; 3. the correlation between these challenges and strategies; 4. actionable suggestions for future operation and development of cataloging. The researcher also hopes the results of study will provide useful and practical references for mangers and staff in the division of cataloging on planning better cataloging operations, in addition to make school authorities and library heads to pay more attention and focus on the cataloging operations issues.

Keywords: cataloging; cataloging operation; technological university and college; library; challenges; strategies
