    Abstract
    This 5th ed. has been heavily revised and partly rewritten. It comprises 5 parts: (1) Theory of information retrieval systems (covering derived indexing, printed indexes and database access systems as well as sematics and syntax); (2) Precoordinate indexing systems (covering subject headings, notation, alphabetical index, OPACs); (3) Precoordinate indexing languages (covering the DDC, UDC, BC, CC, LCC, LCSH and shorter lists of subject headings); (4) Postcoordinate indexing languages; (5) The future (digital libraries).

    Abstract
    The complexity explosion has led to ever-increasing difficulties in subject specification, especially in the use of notations in classified arrangement. Two recent developments, the use of DC18 and PRECIS in the BNB, form a substantial contribution towards the solution of these difficulties, particularly in view of the increased pressure for standardization arising from the use of computers

    Abstract
    After an introduction in which the necessity of creating the BSO is stressed, certain features distinguishing the BSO from existing classification schemes are studied. A short description of BSO structure and content is given

    Abstract
    In theory, classificationists always avoid critical classification: that is, the introduction of their own bias and prejudices into the schemes they compile. In practice, all the schemes available to librarians reflect to a greater or lesser degree the prejudices of their origins. In some cases it is difficult to see any justification for this; for example, the peculiar attitude toward women shown by many schemes. In other cases schemes reflect perhaps too closely the culture on which they are based. No solution is proposed, but it is important that librarians be aware of the problems

    Abstract
    The authors comments once more on the treatment of sensitive subjects - religion, politics, sex - in LCSH, UDC and DDC19. He offers no solution, but suggests that the profession must reappraise what it is trying to do
