Sorcery in Dark Souls isn't really a "skill", or at least, not in the traditional sense. But here's how to equip sorceries and catalysts:

Equipping a Sorcery
You know when you rest at a bonfire, there's that menu which pops up? Well, if you scroll through that, you should see "Attune Magic" on the list. Select that, and then you should see a space which is taken up by Fireball, and a few empty spaces next to it (or any other spells you may have equipped).

Select one of these slots, and you'll be able to select from a list of spells, much like when you equip a weapon or armor. Select the sorcery you want, and it will be attuned into your casting list. However, in order to use certain sorceries, you must level up your intelligence stat in order to use them.

Equipping a Catalyst
Equipping a Catalyst is the exact same as equipping a weapon or shield. Press the START button to open up a menu. Scroll across one, to "Equip Items", and go into it. Then, you can select one of the slots for your right or left hand weapons. Scroll down the list of your weapons, until you see the Sorcerer's Catalyst. Once equipped, so long as you've got the minimum Intelligence stat to use it, then you can cast sorceries.
