    Abstract
    Although the rules for descriptive cataloging have been recodified twice in the past twenty years, there never has been any kind of comprehensive theoretical code for subject headings, despite some suggestions for a code over the years. This essay explains the need for a code, provides historical background, and presents some broad proposals as to the philosophy, structure, and form of the code and what the code should cover. Included is the relation between the proposed code and the Library of Congress' 1984 Subject Cataloging Manual.

    Abstract
    Argues the need to provide additional access points in the cataloguing of popular culture materials in libraries which treat such collections as special collections. Provides a list of 8 general principles to apply in enhancing access to such materials through the catalogue (by increasing the number of appropriate headings), and illustrates how these principles might be implemented in two areas: motion pictures, radio and television and popular music

    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

    Recounts the efforts throughout the 1980s to promote the idea of a subject heading code and revisions to LC subject haedings. Describes the current situation of stasis. The Library of Congress has announced no comprehensive plan for LC Subject Headings, and it is unclear whether the concept of standardisation will be embraced

    Abstract
    Claims that there is no clear plan, comprehensive philosophy, or macro approach to the revision of Library of Congress Subject Headings. Having missed a great opportunity in the mid-1980s to develop a subject analog of AACR2, LC is now in a period of decline. Discusses alternatives to LC subject access such as PRECIS and keyword searching. Urges LC to halt and reverse the decline by bold, decisive action in the 1990s

    Abstract
    Four policy proposals are made which affect LC's subject headings for science: a system of "gathering levels" for botany and microbiology similar to the one developed for zoology; a system of secondary headings for geology of a place; guidelines for formulating names of chemical compounds and their groups; and abandonment of "reverse patterns."

    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
    The number of subject headings for any individual bibliographic record is discussed. Four policy proposals are presented: how many different persons, places, and organisations should be used; how many uses of the same person, place, organisation, or topic should be allowed; an overall policy on secondary headings; how many subjects should be as a general policy.
