In‐house (Locally Generated) Subject Indexes Mounted on Academic Library OPACs

Abstract

The results of a further survey of academic library OPAC subject indexing practices are presented. These results are discussed in relation to a high reported demand for subject searching facilities, and strategies presently adopted by various libraries examined. The further possibilities of local OPAC subject indexing are discussed.
