Über diesen Titel

Reseña del editor

This work offers users a complete and definitive guide to a challenging area of study. Chan presents a brief history of the system, analyzes its principles, and describes its vocabulary and subject authority control. She then discusses the application of LC subject headings to LC MARC records and outlines the Library of Congress's policies on the assignment of subject headings in general and the treatment of certain types of materials in particular.

Críticas

"The book should be required reading not only for those whose job it is to construct and apply subject headings, but also for all sophisticated seekers of information in libraries, including reference libraries and scholars."
