A solution is offered to the problem of adequately cataloging a pamphlet file without increasing staff workload. A system is described in which material is classified by broad subject headings, themselves arranged alphabetically. This had an additional advantage in that valuable material which does not in itself merit full cataloging can be incorporated. Subject headings are derived from material in the present collection, given extensive scope notes, and cross-referenced. A separate card index is maintained for pamphlet file headings. The material is filed in expandable file pockets. Included in this account are a subject index for a Journalism Pamphlet/Clipping file, procedures for acquisition, description of sources, and procedures for maintenance of the file. (WBC)
