    Abstract
    The Library of Congress (LC) has provided few history period subdivisions for the regions, provinces, and territories of Canada. Additional subdivisons are proposed for Alberta, British Columbia, Manitoba, the Maritime Provinces, New Brunswick, Newfoundland, the Northwest Territories, Nova Scotia, Ontario, the Prairie Provinces, Prince Edward Island, Québec, Saskatchewan, and the Yukon.

    Abstract
    Considers the future of LCSH and whether their viability can be maintained through a written standardization code. Until there is an online substitute for LC subject headings which has been tested on a large scale over a period of time, a successor to the present combination of LC's controlled vocabulary headings plus computerized techniques such as keyword searching is unlikely to emerge

    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
    USE, a new subject approach particularly designed for automated use on the Internet and elsewhere, is proposed. This system combines a fixed linguistic component with a simple and consistent structure for combination of terms, suitable for multinational, multicultural and multilingual use. Examples of its use in practice are given. An international implementation approach for USE is provided

    Abstract
    A movement for a subject heading code to standardize LCSH and their usage gained considerable attention in the late 1980s and early 1990s. Examines the reasons for the lack of progress in this project, which include: the lack of any plan from the LoC which could serve as a philosophical foundation for either a subject access system or the changes made to it; the belief that online catalogues make a controlled subject vocabulary obsolete; and professional ignorance, apathy, and negativism. Warns that, in an increasingly complex age, lack of standardization of any technical system or process tends to lead to the demise of that system or process

    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.
