The courses for catalogues lead the charts of the most desired educational activities within last years. Librarians in libraries change, cataloguing rules and formats are updated and demands on records standardization are more and more strict.

These courses should enable high-quality education economizing time and costs of adepts of cataloguing. And it is also important to increase a number of trained librarians and to apply a cataloguing policy in a uniform way that enables to improve a quality of databases and catalogues and to facilitate documents access.
