"Would be useful in library science classes as well as for professional online searchers or brokers." - Public Library Quarterly "The book makes interesting and stimulating reading and is recommended for practicing indexers and abstractors as a means of removing their noses from the grindstone and lifting their heads for a few deep breaths of more rarified air." - The Indexer "This book is thoughtfully written and quite well edited." - Journal of Academic Librarianship
Indexing and abstracting often fail because too much emphasis is given to the mechanics of description and too little is given to what ought to be described. This text focuses on how people seek information. Drawing on a delightfully broad base of intellectual resources-from information theory and classic literature to Beethoven and MTV-the author considers the basic question of how we can index and abstract our information so that the user can actually find it. He also addresses the challenges and opportunities resulting from the information and technology explosion. O'Connor discusses the shortcomings of traditional indexing and abstracting systems and then presents essays, exercises, and case studies that foster consideration of the elements of a successful search in a variety of settings. Useful as a companion volume for reference, cataloging, and indexing and abstracting classes, this book is also of interest to professional librarians, information brokers, and online searchers.
