- Abstract:
- These best practices are concerned with applying the Library of Congress Subject Headings to art exhibition publications, and are intended for use with the relevant sections of the Library of Congress Subject Headings Manual. Assigning subject headings to exhibition publications presents a great opportunity for the exercise of cataloger’s judgment. Not only are art exhibition publications frequently published with little information about their subject beyond an artist’s name and a short checklist, but the existing bibliographic records that catalogers follow as examples can vary widely according to local practices. Many of these practices can depart from established standards published in the Library of Congress Subject Headings Manual.
