Cooperative cataloguing is a collaborative process where libraries share cataloguing resources, expertise, and records to create a shared catalogue or database. It allows libraries to pool their resources and reduce duplication of efforts in creating bibliographic records for shared materials. This can improve access to information for library users and streamline cataloguing processes for participating institutions.

Cataloguing is the process of creating entries for catalogue.
Cataloguing books helps organize and index them, making it easier to locate specific titles or topics. It also aids in tracking borrowed items, managing inventory, and ensuring proper shelving. Additionally, cataloguing can enhance the overall user experience by providing accurate and detailed information about the library's collection.

A call number is used in a library to represent the subject of an item, as well as show where on the shelf it can be found. The number given to a library item is based on standardized cataloguing procedures, as dictated by either the Dewey Decimal Classification system (typically used in school and public libraries) or the LIbrary of Congress Classification system (typically used by academic and research libraries). The call number is usually found on the spine of a book.
