A Study on the Quality of Subject Data in Library Catalogs

This study intends to make a comprehensive inquiry into the quality of subject data in library catalogs. On the basis of National Library Subject Headings (NLSH) developed in 2002, National Library of Korea (NLK) has input the subject data into cataloging records since 2003. However a serious question could arise regarding whether the data are appropriate and desirable as a subject of the work. Under these circumstances, this study examined as follows: First, the meanings and attributes of the ‘subject’ were examined with a comprehensive literature survey. Second, a experimental analysis was carried out to measure the quality of the subject data. Sample records were selected from NLK, LC and A university library in Korea, and absolute and relative quality were compared. Finally, the substantial and realistic strategies for improving the quality of subject data were discussed.
