I wish to thank those who have expressed an interest in a new edition of
Cataloging and Classification: An Introduction. Currently, I am working on
a new edition of Library of Congress Subject Headings: Principles and
Application. The beginning textbook will be my next project. Any comments
on earlier editions and suggestions will be most welcome. Thank you for
your encouragement and patience.
