Riassunto:

This book is intended primarily as a text to be used in teaching indexing and abstracting in schools of library and information science. It will also be of value to all individuals and institutions involved in training for information retrieval and related activities, including librarians, managers of information centres, and database producers. The similarities rather than the differences of indexing and abstracting are stressed. Chapter headings include: pre-co-ordinate indexes, consistency of indexing, quality of indexing, abstracts: types and functions, writing the abstract, natural language in information retrieval, automatic indexing. There are exercises in both indexing and abstracting procedures.
