24
To think about…
¡Now that we have free-text searching, do you feel controlled vocabularies are still necessary or not? What do you feel their impact will be in the future of the digital library?
¡
¡How would you improve the ACM classification scheme?  How to deal with legacy schemes?
¡
¡Booksellers also need to use classification to shelve books.  Which type of classification do you think booksellers use?  Would you make any adaptations to the classification schemes shown today?
