- Abstract
- Describes the use of notational synthesis or number building in different classification schemes. Points out that the use of facet analysis by S.R. Ranganathan is an exact parallel to the central notion of Geberal Systems Theory (GST). Explains the Ranganathan concept of a 'whole' and 'wholeness'. Points out that it is easy to find evidence of the validity of GST in many fields. Concludes that none has yet advanced, or even attempted an alternative term to 'personality' which so accurately mirrors the central concept of GST

- Abstract
- The brothers Foskett, Anthony and Douglas, have both made major contributions to the theory and practice of subject analysis and description. Here, Douglas Foskett explains facet analysis, a vital technique in the development of both classification schemes and thesauri. Foskett himself created faceted classification schemes for specific disciplines, drawing from the philosophy of the great Indian classificationist, S.R. Ranganathan.

- Abstract
- Contribution to a thematic issue devoted to an investigation and celebration of the works of Dr. S.R. Ranganathan. His 'Five laws of library science' place the user as the focus of library and information service and emphasise the need to understand and interpret the subject of the user's enquiry which contributes to user-friendliness. Concept organisation is required at the input stage, ba analysing the user's document content, and at the output stage, by analysing the user's information need from the terms in his or her enquiry. Facet analysis reflects a natural way of thinking and can be introduced into computerised systems without difficulty.
