17. Library of Congress Subject Headings for Environmental Sources
- egj.lib.uidaho.edu
- Library of Congress Subject Headings for Environmental Sources.
- The Library of Congress subject headings have been evolving to cover the wider array of materials published on environmental topics such as pollution, toxic waste, ecotourism, ecofeminism, and other aspects of the human effects on the natural world. LC headings have been widely criticized in the past for using outdated and arcane terminology and being slow to establish new headings even when a topic has considerable literature. That has changed in recent years, and LC has recently been more willing to create subject headings while a topic is still new and change outdated terminology to more current forms. ...
- Still, there are some quirks in LCs manner of establishing and assigning subject headings. Often headings seem to be at variance with common usage. However, it is easy to forget that common usage is quite imprecise and ambiguous while LC aims for consistency in its headings. ... A keyword search of terms beginning with the words Environment or Environmental also retrieve headings such as Classroom environment, Composite materials--Effect of environment on, Environmental music, etc. Because of this ambiguity, LC has never established Environment as a heading, preferring to use it as a reference to other more specific headings. ...
- One problem with both assigning and using the LC subject headings is determining what the heading means. ... A full MARC format authority display revealing the headings broader or narrower terms is often helpful in determining more precisely the scope of a term. ... In recently established headings, however, if a definition of the term is found at the time the heading is established it may be quoted in the authority record. ...
- New headings are established all the time. However, many publications deal with topics for which headings have not yet been established. ... LC has online work forms, which may be downloaded and filled out to expedite the establishment of subject headings. ...
- Headings often change as well. ...
