- Abstract
- Despite the popularity of fiction in libraries, little has been done to analyse systematically the criteria that fiction readers use when selecting books. Describes and evaluates several fiction sclassification systems from the perspective of how well they answer likely reader queries regarding the subject of a novel. Examines the 2-faceted 'levels-of-access' concept that is the common point of reference in all comparisons. Discusses classification schemes in terms of theri utility for browsing, subject headings for card catalogues, and printed indexes. Also discusses the provision of multifaceted subject access through on-line fiction cataloguing. Suggests further investigation of levels of access
