I've been updating our MARC records with subject headings that our K-2 school children can use. The previous edition in the library was so old that the subject terminology was very out-dated. Once I got this book, I was relieved to see how up-to-date the terms were and how the majority were going to be easy for the youngest of library users to figure out. The material provided before the subject list even starts is very useful as well. Dewey numbers are provided from the DDC 14th Abridged edition -- the most up-to-date edition of that book. Highly recommend purchasing this updated version.
Even though most catalog entries are now received electronically, this book is still useful in the media center to help tag entries so students and others can find the books most useful for their research. The book also has a very pretty cover so it looks good on the desk when it is not in use!
Although I was hoping for a newer edition, this Sears List will really help me with cataloging my books. Sears is the library cataloging authority.
It is perfect and I am using it.
