商品簡介
After covering the types of files employed in online catalogs, international standards (such as the MARC format), and the semantic and syntactic aspects of indexing and retrieval languages, Hope Olson and John Boll (respectively, U. of Alberta and emeritus, U. of Wisconsin) go into subject indexing, subject headings and descriptors, bibliographic classification, the Dewey Decimal and Library of Congress classifications, user needs, user-system interfaces, and evaluation of subject retrieval. Online catalogs have revolutionized subject analysis, and this resource will help librarians stay abreast of the intricacies and attuned to the new potential. Annotation c.
