    Abstract
    The process of thesaurus evaluation can enhance the value of a thesaurus in terms of usability, scope, precision and recall. Structural, formative, observational and comparative evaluation techniques are explained along with specific examples of their use. These methods of evaluation can be applied in the assessment of an existing thesaurus or the construction of a new thesaurus. The history of thesauri since 1960, the development of national and international standards, and sources of evaluative literature are also discussed.

    1. Exploit technology a. for adding class numbers to materials in digital form. b. for linking subject access systems like LCSH and DDC. c. for providing navigation and retrieval tools based on outlines of knowledge within classification schedules. 2. Extend the use of library classification to Internet resources. 3. Improve presentation of information in library classification schedules, including more lead in vocabulary, more understandable scope notes, better captions, references, and indexes. 4. Share development strategies among and between various classification systems and thesauri, creating the ability to link with one another including multilingual and specialized systems. 5. Work with vendors of Online Catalogs so that these systems will include features where classification systems and thesauri can be used for file partitioning, navigation, and retrieval. 6. Build bridges from the past (e.g., library collections classified by DDC, LCC, etc.) to the future (e.g., digitized full text collections). 7. Educate consumers, administrators, and practitioners about the value of library classification systems beyond mere shelf arrangement. 8. Conduct more end-user research to determine utility of library classification systems new and improved. 9. Reach out to other professions for ideas, stimulation, collaboration, and convergence on the problem of organizing networked information. 10. Challenge the status quo in the realm of library and networked information systems and services. 11. Make the classification schemes more educational so that the user can be guided to see relationships and cognate information they might not otherwise have known. 12. Organize the classification schemes differently for the end-user than for the classifier and provide more than one scheme for users to browse and navigate before and after retrieval
