Abstract

Cataloguing and Classification in the library school can be described as the bibliographic description of information resources following appropriate professional order and practice in library and information science. It is the nerve centre of librarianship. Cataloguing is being taught both at the undergraduate and postgraduate level in the university system in Nigeria and other parts of the world. The course is called Organisation of Knowledge in some library schools. It is a three-unit course at the undergraduate level. It is a course students must pass before graduating from the university. Widely believed among students is the fact that the course is difficult. The paper therefore enumerate while discussing the resources used in the labouratory among students to help encourage them in the use of the tools and erase the notion of the perceived difficulty, as the researcher experientially observed that the use of these resources will help to abate failure and make the course friendly to trainees/students. Other recommendations were also made in the research.
