- Subject Access Project; First Quarterly Progress Report. Cataloging College Libraries Experimental Programs Humanities Indexing Information Retrieval Library Research Social Sciences Subject Index Terms An attempt is being made to improve subject access to monographs by augmenting MARC (Machine Readable Cataloging) records. Working with a sample of books drawn from the collections of the University of Toronto and comprising a number of subject areas in the humanities and social sciences, the project plans to enlarge the MARC description by using a set of decision rules for selecting words and phrases found in the index and/or the table of contents. This first quarterly report for the period June to August 1976 describes the sample of selected monographs, summarizes the project budget to date, and projects activities for the future. (EMH)
