- Abstract
- Users of the Information Superhighway need signposts to find their way to appropriate, accurate and current information.

The considerable body of theory on vocabulary control for online database searching can be adapted to index construction for the Internet. At the same time, there are unresolved issues concerning information quality, indexing decisions, and standards
