Abstract

An analysis of a sample of 9.442 headings assigned by the LoC to bibliographic records disclosed 2 types of invalid headings: those that were erroneous and those that were obsolete. Each type revealed recurring patterns. Errors and obsolete elements occuring in assigned heading involve MARC coding, terminology in main headings and subdivisions, application of subdivisions, and in mechanical elements such as punctuation and capitalization. Different headings (e.g. personal name, corporate name, topical, etc.) display different patterns as well as predominance of errors and obsoleteness. Although the overall error rate is low, an awareness and understanding of patterns of errors and obsolescnce in subject heading strings should contribute to improvement in subject heading assignment and subject authority control

Abstract

OCLC's NetFirst Internet database includes DDC numbers and LoC subject headings to facilitate access to resources. 3 OCLC research projects are helping explore the potential of DDC as a knowledge-structuring tool for large collections of electronic documents. The Scorpion system explores indexing and cataloguing of electronic resources, with emphasis on building tools for automatic subject recognition using schemes like the DDC. Dewey ETC Trees and Wordsmith are concerned with expanding the Deqey knowledge based and enhancing the vocabulary and terminology of the DDC

Abstract

This paper describes how the Dewey Decimal Classification (DDC) is being prepared for use as an Internet subject guide. These preparations are being carried out in three phases 1) adding supplemental terminology to the DDC to better lead Internet users to relevant DDC categories, 2) revising the Dewey captions for currency and expressiveness, and 3) prototyping a Web-accessible Dewey Subject Guide that incorporates the outcomes from the earlier phases. Phases 1 and 2 are addressed in detail in this paper

Abstract

Emerging standards in knowledge representation and organization are preparing the way for distributed vocabulary support in Internet search services. NetLab researchers are exploring several innovative solutions for searching and browsing in the subject-based Internet gateway, Electronic Engineering Library, Sweden (EELS). The implementation of the EELS service is described, specifically, the generation of the robot-gathered database 'All' engineering and the automated application of the Ei thesaurus and classification scheme. NetLab and OCLC researchers are collaborating to investigate advanced solutions to automated classification in the DESIRE II context. A plan for furthering the development of distributed vocabulary support in Internet search services is offered.
