Abstract

Contents enhancement of catalog records may increase access to books in collections and aid in effective resource sharing by providing more detailed descriptions about library holdings in the catalog. A sample of monographs in San Diego State Univ. Library was studied to determine the extent to which information in books from parts of the collection could be represented better by content notes, and to determine how much of this information has subject or analytical applications. The study revealed that approximately 23% of the books contain discrete content information not already represented in catalog records that could be added. Of those, 52% would be citation-based enhancements and 48% would be subject-based. Nearly 65% would require fewer than 25 enhancements, with an average of 8.03 enhancements per book for the total population

Abstract

Describes an approach to indexing which seeks to eliminate the shortcoming of the representation of information in existing bibliographic catalogues: Subject Access Project (SAP) indexing which has been used successfully at Lund University and elsewhere. Existing catalogue records have been enriched with terms selected from lists of contents and indexes in books thus facilitating access to specific parts of documents and smaller semantic entites such as chapter titles, subject titles and data in graphic or tabulated form available in a wide range of publications

SAP indexing for exploring the full thematic context of books and for access to smaller semantic entites

Abstract

Since Dec 86, the Australian Defence Force Academy (ADFA) library has been enriching bibliographic records by adding terms from either the contents pages or indexes of books. 40.000 records are now enriched, representing about 25% coverage of the ADFA database of 210.000 titles. Evaluates the retrieval effectiveness of the enriched data in an OPAC, in comparison with title and LCSH, using 90 topics from 6 different subject areas

Abstract

As librarians plan ahead to make subject enhancements available to online searchers in various possible file locations and formats, they may want to base their decisions on implications for online searching. This paper explores some of these implications with respect to unique and misleading terminology in tables of contents, Choice abstracts, and reviews from Computing reviews for thirty-six books on information and computer science chosen from the 1987 issues of Choice. It also discusses possible interacting functions in the search process served by these subject enhancements, assigned LCSH, and book title terminology

Abstract

With the advent of online public access catalogs, catalog librarians and their staffs have been freed from the labor-intensive processes involved in the creation and maintenance of card catalogs. At the Medical University of South Carolina Library, this new found time has been devoted to enhancing access to the library's collections. Enhancements discussed include the creation of bibliographic records for vertical file materials, the National Library of Medicine bibliographies, and reserve items, as well as providing subject access to individual chapters in books and articles in monographic serials.
