Subject analysis in aeronautical libraries.

For the purpose of this thesis, the writer's own definition of “subject analysis” is “The art of determining and recording the subject matter of a publication in such a way that the publication will be readily brought to the attention of a reader interested in the same subject”. “Aeronautical libraries” will be considered u those serving organizations that manufacture or operate airplanes, that do research on airplanes or that legislate on matters involving airplanes. This thesis is a study of the tools and techniques of subject analysis available to the aeronautical librarian. These tools and techniques fall into the following categories: the various formats of catalogues, lists of subject headings, classification schemes, printed catalogue cards, indexes.
