- Abstract
- Spansih subject headings can be used when searching ILLINET Online. Although Spanish language Bilindex subject headings have been available for more than a decade, the library literature has virtually ignored their existence. Provides a brief introduction to these headings, identifies several Illinois libraries which currently assign them, and presents some examples. Surveys various prospects and problems associated with their use

- Abstract
- Subject headings and classification numbers in catalogue records for books on Chicano literature are surveyed. Although LCSH containing the words 'Mexican American(s)' appear in 58% of the records for collections and secondary works, they appear in only 39% of the records of works for individual authors. But these subject headings appear in a higher percentage of the records for both groups of books than do Bilindex, LoC classification numbers, and DDC numbers that associate these books with Mexican-American literature. Subject cataloguing of the works of individual authors is especially problematic

- Abstract
- This study analyzes the Library of Congress (LC) class numbers and the LC subject headings which LC has assigned to 164 works of history and criticism of literature (belles lettres) related to women's studies. These books were classed in more than one hundred different class numbers and spans of numbers. Less than half of these books were assigned to class numbers in PA-PT whose captions contain either the word "women" or another word which points to women's studies, but slightly more than half were assigned "literature" subject headings which contain the words "women," "feminism," "feminist," or "sex role." The subject heading "Women in literature" was assigned to forty of these books, while the words "women authors" appear in a series of different subject headings assigned to forty-five of these books.
