THESAURUS CONSTRUCTION
15 SEPTEMBER 2005, LONDON
The requirement for intelligent control of subject access to increasingly complex data is becoming more evident. The morning focuses on thesaurus building and the afternoon takes a wider survey of authority control, exploring methods that work successfully in cataloguing and can be adapted to suit less rigorous data environments.
BY THE END OF THE EVENT PARTICIPANTS WILL:
* have used the conventions of thesaurus construction
* be able to review appropriate action to enhance the quality of their data.
* have an awareness of the importance of authority control as a key factor in maintaining
data quality
* have an understanding of the MARC 21 Authority Format
WHO SHOULD ATTEND?
This introduction is for any information manager who has the responsibility for keeping quality control in data collections. It is also useful for small information system managers as it will enable them to gain guidance on how to maintain quality in their data.
SPECIAL NOTES
This course is a revised version of Subject to Authority
