The purpose of this master thesis is to improve effectiveness and efficiency in COBISS system in Macedonia from cataloguers' point of view. On the other hand we are trying to determine issues causing difficulties and challenges facing cataloguers with licence in COBISS system in Macedonia. According to the obtained results cataloguers consider that they: are satisfied with module COBISS/Cataloguing and have a positive experience working in this environment; consider that quality of processed records due to the fact of a good knowledge of cataloguing rules, experience in processing of bibliographic records as well as appropriate formal and informal education; courses and seminars held in NUL are not sufficient should be with higher quality to offer new contents and more frequent; have difficulties with application and interpretation of traditional cataloguing code. Potential solutions are: construction of a higher-education system in the field of LIS following contemporary trends; introduction of national cataloguing code harmonized according to the IFLA rules for cataloguing; increasing higher quality control of bibliographic records and greater focus on responsibility and performance of cataloguers.[I.
