Title

Cutterism, codism, and consumerism : the past, present, and future of LC subject access

Source

Technical services quarterly. 9(1991) no.1, S.19-25

Year

1991

Abstract

The three phases of the development of LC subject headings are surveyed. The inconsistent and not highly effective practices of the past, or Cutterism, should be put aside in favor of standardization or codism. But codism is not an end in itself. It is just a prelude to the ultimate goal - consumerism, or keeping the needs of the library user at the forefront
