Abstract

The Centre for the Study of Cartoon and Caricature, Kent University, has a large collection of over 80.000 original cartoon drawings of 20th century British newspaper cartoons that is used as a research resource and is also consulted as a picture library. The collection has been extensively catalogues by subject, but the subject keywords are organized for the original card catalogue rather than the present day OPAC. Describes a project to build a thesaurus based on the 15.000 existing subject terms and then convert the exisitng catalogue to the new thesaurus terms

Form
