Abstract

Assesses the current state of reference structures in OPACs in a framework defined by stagnation, progress, and future challenges. 'Stagnation' referes to the limited and inconsistent reference structure access provided in current OPACs. 'Progress' refers to improved OPAC reference structure access and reference structure possibilities that extend beyond those commonly represented in existing subject autgority control tools. The progress discussion is supported by a look at professional committee work, data modelling ideas, ontological theory, and one area of linguistic research. The discussion ends with a list of 6 areas needing attention if reference structure access is to be improved in the future OPAC environment
