Purpose. The paper presents a workshop titled Key Librarians for Cataloguing Module held at the Conference „Library Data: Interoperability, Connectivity, and Exchange“, held on 28th and 29th November 2017 at the National and University Library in Zagreb. The basic tasks of key librarians are: expert support to regular library work of the libraries in the network, testing new functionalities of system modules, monitoring and control of library system based on work reports, testing and analysis of service reports at the system level, collaboration with the integrated library system consultant, the base editors, system administrators, system and key librarians in charge of administrative system management, and assisting and educating participants in the system. Approach. Starting from the basic aspects of the role and work of key librarians within the Integrated Library System of the National and University Library in Zagreb and the libraries from the science and higher education system, every aspect of the work in the cataloging module is described. Findings. The integrated library system is based on the application of the common programming system Aleph, MARC 21 format, central authority control and national subject headings system. The National and University Library in Zagreb, being the central library of the system, provides professional, technical, and administrative support in the work of the common information and library system. The key librarians of the cataloging module conduct regular courses in the Basics of the Cataloging Module as well as practical exercises (demonstration). Libraries in the integrated library system commonly use the National and University Library authority database and templates, while the catalog bibliographic records are retrieved and downloaded as needed from the system's bases or are created from scratch. The librarians fill up the forms in which they describe the encountered difficulties and send them through the support system, https://iks.nsk.hr/podrska/, which are then resolved by the editors, or key and system librarians. Practical use. The results of this paper can help librarians who work in the Integrated system member libraries in their day-to-day work. Originality/Value. The article strives to bring closer the term key librarians and explain their role in the development of the profession to wider library community. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
