Abstract

The article discusses the construction of a controlled vocabulary for the indexing of petroleum and gas related articles in indigenous periodicals and newspapers in the library system of the Nigerian National Corporation (NNPC). The major problems encountered in the design of the subject heading list are highlighted and solutions offered. Attention is also drawn to neologisms as they apply to the controlled vocabulary under consideration.
