Title

Classed thesauri in indexing and retrieval : a literature review and critical evaluation of online alphabetic classaurus

Source

Library and information science research. 11(1989) no.2, S.109-141

Year

1989

Abstract

Reviews the research that led to the development of a hierarchic scheme of terms with vocabulary control features, called Classaurus, and describes a project aimed at writing software that could be used for the automatic generation of an online alphabetic Classaurus. The problems encountered are discussed and suggestions for further research are made.
