Using Subject Headings for Online Retrieval is an indispensable
tool for online system designers who are developing new systems or
refining existing ones. The book describes subject analysis and
subject searching in online catalogs, including the limitations of
retrieval, and demonstrates how such limitations can be overcome
through system design and programming. The book describes the
Library of Congress Subject Headings system and system
characteristics, shows how information is stored in
machine-readable files, and offers examples of and recommendations
for successful retrieval methods. Tables are included to support
these recommendations, and diagrams, graphs, and bar charts are
used to provide results of data analysis. Practitioners in
institutions using or considering the installation of an online
catalog will refer to this book often to generate specifications.
Researchers in library systems, information retrieval, and user
behavior will appreciate the book's detailing of the results of an
extensive, empirical study of the subject terms entered into online
systems by end users. Using Subject Headings for Online Retrieval
also addresses the needs of advanced students in library schools
and instructors in library automation, information retrieval,
cataloging, indexing, and user behavior.
