Because the content of these databases is developed by different providers each using different controlled vocabularies or subject heading thesauri, our search terms were, by necessity, different. This astonishing story has been artfully and earnestly told in the new film End of the Spear, which has earned sneering disdain from the same sages who wore out their thesauri in search of plaudits to heap on Brokeback Mountain. Other resources used include controlled vocabularies and classification schemes such as the Library of Congress Subject Headings (LCSH), Sears List of Subject Headings (Sears), subject-specific thesauri, and the Library of Congress Classification (LCC) or Dewey Decimal Classification (DDC) schemes. |
