- Abstract
- This paper examines a user categorisation of documents related to a particular literary work. 50 study participants completed an unconstrained sorting rask of documents related to Charles Dickens' 'A christmas carol'. After they had finished the sorting task, participants wrote desriptions of the attributes they used to create each group. Content analysis of theses descriptions revealed categories of attributes used for grouping. Participants used physical format, audience, content description, pictorial elements, usage, and language most frequently for grouping. Many of the attributes participants used for grouping already exist in bibliographic records and may be used to cluster records related to works automatically in online catalogue displays. The attributes used by people in classifying or grouping documents related to a work may be used to guide the design of summary online catalogue work displays
