- Use of #v Subfield for Form Subdivisions in Subject Headings
http://www.lib.usm.edu/%7Etechserv/cat/tools/formsubv.htm
The Library of Congress began using subfield $v for form subdivisions in subject headings effective February 17,
1999. Below is a list of form subdivisions (i.e., those that describe the form of an item, not its subject matter)
from Free-Floating Subdivisions: an Alphabetical Index, 12th ed. Topical subdivisions will continue to be
coded $x. Library of Congress practice for multiple subdivision strings is indicated by the inclusion of the MARC
subfield codes (e.g., x-y-v). Form subdivisions that can be subdivided geographically are indicated with an
asterisk.
- Subdivision authority records (18X) / Cataloging Policy and Support Office
http://lcweb.loc.gov/catdir/cpso/subdauth.html
As announced in March 1998 by the Cataloging Policy and Support Office (CPSO), the Library of Congress has begun to
create subdivision authority records to control the approximately 3,100 topical, form, and chronological free-floating
subdivisions in the Library of Congress Subject Headings system. These records contain subdivision data in 18X fields and
codes in 073 fields that identify their controlling instruction sheet numbers from the Subject Cataloging Manual: Subject
Headings (H 1095 - H 1200).
- Moving Image Genre-Form Guide / Motion Picture/Broadcasting/Recorded Sound Division, Library of Congress

It defines the concepts of form and genre separately. It makes those definitions operational by providing separate lists of terms. Terms from the form and genre lists are combined in a faceted manner.

- Fact Sheet : UMLS ® Metathesaurus ®
http://www.nlm.nih.gov/pubs/factsheets/umlsmeta.html
The UMLS Metathesaurus is one of three knowledge sources developed and distributed by the National
Library of Medicine as part of the Unified Medical Language System® (UMLS®) project. The
Metathesaurus contains information about biomedical concepts and terms from many controlled
vocabularies and classifications used in patient records, administrative health data, bibliographic and
full-text databases and expert systems.
- Fact Sheet : Unified Medical Language System
http://www.nlm.nih.gov/pubs/factsheets/umls.html
In 1986, the National Library of Medicine (NLM), began a long term research and development project
to build a Unified Medical Language System® (UMLS®). The purpose of the UMLS is to aid the
development of systems that help health professionals and researchers retrieve and integrate electronic
biomedical information from a variety of sources and to make it easy for users to link disparate information
systems, including computer-based patient records, bibliographic databases, factual databases, and expert
systems.

http://www.niso.org/committees/MS_initiative.html
Metasearch, parallel search, federated search, broadcast search, cross-database search, search portal have become commonplace in the information community's vocabulary. They speak to a common theme of allowing search and retrieval to span multiple databases, sources, platforms, protocols, and vendors at once.
One-search access to multiple resources holds the promise of enabling libraries to offer portal environments so their users can enjoy the same easy searching found in web-based services like Google.
