LC Subject Headings Disguised as a Thesaurus.
Dykstra, Mary
Library Journal, v113 n4 p42-46 Mar 1 1988
Discusses recent changes in the Library of Congress Subject Headings (LCSH), arguing that the adoption of the well-recognized codes for thesauri has created confusion because the LCSH is not a true thesaurus. The distinction between subject headings and terms are clarified and a possible solution to the problems with the LCSH is suggested. (5 references) (MES)
