    Abstract
    Presents a critique of the way in which the LCC scheme deals with the social sciences. Concludes that, although the LCC is reanoable effective and understandable overall, there are quite a few confusing or tricky areas

    Two proposals are presented which affect the Library of Congress's subject headings for art: abandonment of the structure used in headings like "Art, French" and assignment of genre headings for some types of reproductions of an artist's work.

    Abstract
    Southeast Asia is an important and populous region with an extensive literature. Many libraries in the United States and Canada have large or moderate collections of Southeast Asia materials. Yet the Library of Congress has not provided sufficient subject heading period subdivisions for the area. Additional subdivisons are proposed in detail for: Asia, Southeastern; Indonesia; Malaysia; Singapore; Philippines; Thailand; Indochina; Vietnam; Cambodia; Laos; and Burma. The historical and/or logical justification for the proposed additions follow each area. The function of the essay is not to present absolute answer, but to promote awareness of the problem and to suggest reasonable alternatives.

    Abstract
    Libraries using the LCSH can increase the effectiveness of their subject access. This can be accomplished through one of four methods for applying an increased number of headings: the addition of subject headings in situations where none have been supplied by LC; the use of pattern secondary headings; the use of major + minor techniques; and the use of minor + major techniques. Each of these methods will provide additional subject access to supplement that produced by the Library of Congress

    Abstract
    Concerns expressed in a 1994 essay on catalogues and the Superhighway have still not been addressed and 3 new questions now arise: (1) Is there a real need for bibliographic control of the Internet? (2) Since we do not truly own Internet information, cannot label or shelve it, can it truly be catalogued? (3) How would efforts to control its retrieval by cataloguing be affected by its lack of constancy?

    Abstract
    Examines recent discussion of the need for the development of a theory based code for LCSH. Research has shown that academic libraries are not keeping up with changes to subject heading systems in recent years. One of reasons for this is that the LoC seems to be operating without any kind of plan or guiding principles

    Abstract
    History period subdivisions established by the Library of Congress (LC) for the individual states of the United States are surprisingly inadequate. Only seven states have subdivisions which cover all periods. Fifteen states need updating to cover the twentieth century. Twenty-eight states are deficient in other ways, including thirteen which have no period subdivisions at all or subdivisions only for wars and other special events. Proposals are made to remedy the deficiencies.
