INTRODUCTION TO BIBLIOGRAPHY

1. AIMS AND SCOPE

The present study in the form of annotated bibliography comprises of all the significant literature dealing with “Information Access Through the Subject”. Although the bibliography is selective in nature, an attempt has been made to cover all aspects of the topic. I hope this bibliography would be helpful to those who wish to know about the subject.


2. METHODOLOGY

The bibliography consists of 322 entries on the topic. LISA was consulted to approach the primary sources. For the purpose of abstracting, primary sources were looked into, using the collections of “Seminar Library of the Department of Library and Information Science, AMU, Maulana Azad Library, AMU, Aligarh, Central Reference Library, Delhi University and Indian National Scientific Documentation Centre, New Delhi”.


3. STANDARD FOLLOWED

The relevant bibliographical details were noted down on 5”x7” cards following the Indian Standard for bibliographic References (IS:2381-1963) and the Classified Catalogue Code.

The items of bibliographical references for each entry of periodical are arranged as follows:

a) Name(s) of author(s)

b) A full stop

c) Title of the contribution including subtitle (if any)

d) A full stop

e) Title of the periodical, being underlined

f) A full stop

g) Volume Number

h) Issue number (within brackets)

i) Semi colon

j) Year of Publication

k) Semi Colon

l) Inclusive pages of the article

m) A full stop

4. ABSTRACT

The bibliographical details of the articles are followed by informative abstracts and indicative-informative abstracts (in some cases). Care has been taken to give essential information contained in the articles.


5. SUBJECT HEADINGS

The entries in the bibliography have been classified and arranged using a scheme involving Broad Subject Headings followed by the Library and Information Science Abstracts (LISA). It may be recalled that prior to 1993, the abstracts in LISA, were arranged according to the unpublished draft version of CRG’s ‘A Classification of Library and Information Science (1971)’. This was followed until 1992. Since 1993, CRG classification scheme was replaced by a scheme developed by LISA based on the Broad Subject Headings.

In consultation with my supervisor a modest attempt has been made to classify the bibliographic entries using the present scheme of LISA. At places the numbers along with the headings were required to be expanded. Dewey Decimal Classification scheme of classification, edition 21st, was used for purpose of expansion. The whole scheme of LISA involving Broad Subject Headings with the expansions shown in italics has been provided following:
