Sylvia,
Any chance of a sneak preview of your report? I'm putting together a literature review for a grant proposal --your work sounds like it would be very appropriate to the topic.

Dear Fellow Educaters,
Great and timely topic, Ingrid!
Late last year I completed a content analysis of employers'
expectations (among a national sample) for entry-level catalogers.
Results will be published next year in CCQ. However, one finding
reveals the high number of employers who expect new LIS graduates to
have familiarity and experience handling electronic resources. The
challenge is to prepare these students in an environment with only 6
accredited programs requiring a cataloging course of all students.
I'm willing to share if anyone is interested.
Cordially,
Sylvia
