The Core Competencies and Education for a Career in Cataloging Interest Group seeks proposals for its meeting during the
Core Interest Group Week, March 4-8. The group facilitates active conversation among librarians, library educators and information professionals about the current state of education and employment in cataloging and explores the relationship of cataloging practitioners and employers with library educators.
