Az ETO-n át az ügyfélhez. A könyvtári tartalmi feltárás üzleti hasznosulásának egy szép példája

Abstract

Due to technologies developed during the last two centuries Universal Decimal Classification (UDC) can be applied in new fields and go beyond usefulness limited to libraries.
The retrieval potential of webshop catalogues can be raised through mapping UDC numbers to terms of the international hierarchical thesaurus Thema, which has been spread in the book industry, instead of applying the not-too-detailed topical classifications used
nowadays in the area for retrieval.
The lists of Thema codes and UDC numbers were created by various corporates,
according to different demands, but from the two structures a coherent one can be built.
The list of matched Thema codes and UDC numbers can be prepared for use in computer
algorithms. The application, based on this table, could add Thema codes to the bibliographic records of the initial database. Hopefully the application can do this work in the
future with the new records of the database almost completely in an automatized way.
