    Abstract
    This paper reports a computer-assisted printed index emphasizing expanded subject access to the more than 6.000 titles in the Iowa State University Library reference collection. The index displays abbreviated-length records and is designed to complement existing catalogs with a minimum of duplication of information. The limitations of subject access to reference materials via LCSH is discussed and a system for assigning subject descriptors to reference titles is described

    Abstract
    The shortcomings and limitations of Library of Congress Subject Headings (LCSH) are examined, focusing on problems of subject term specificity, inconsistent identification and selection of concepts as subject headings, retention of outmoded headings, inadequate cross-reference structure, and low level of indexing exhaustivity. These problems are attributable to both Cutter's Rules for a Dictionary Catalog (the theoretical model upon which LCSH are based), and the unsystematic manner in which LC has applied Cutter's Rules in constructing entries for its subject catalog. Methods of improving subject access in libraries, for both on-line and printed catalog environments, are discussed.
