Are the two connected?
LCSH Week 25, June 24, 2009
(C) 150 Androcentrism in art [Not Subd Geog] [sp2009006002]
From Wikipedia, "Androcentrism (Greek, andro-, "man, male") is the practice, conscious or otherwise, of placing male human beings or the masculine point of view at the center of one's view of the world and its culture and history." Thank you Duke University cataloger!
(C) 150 Cardboard boats [May Subd Geog] [sp2009005862]
053 VM357
550 BT Boats and boating
I can totally see how more people would want to research CARDBOARD BOATS than the FAT ACCEPTANCE MOVEMENT, especially Congress.
(C) 150 Chemical toilets [May Subd Geog] [sp2009006034]
450 UF Chemical closets
450 UF Closets, Chemical
550 BT Toilets
The warrant is a 1971 publication. Good thing LC didn't adopt the heading then, or they might have called them CHEMICAL WATER CLOSETS instead of TOILETS.
also
(C) 150 Portable toilets [May Subd Geog] [sp2005007523]
* 550 BT Chemical toilets
* 550 BT Toilets CANCEL
Portable water closets really would have been silly, but why cancel TOILETS as a broader term?
150 Lobbying [May Subd Geog] [sp 85077890]
* 550 BT Politics, Practical
Neither heading is new; the relationship is. The scope note for POLITICS, PRACTICAL is "Here are entered works on practical political methods used in political party work, electioneering, etc."
(C) 150 Meteorology on postage stamps [sp2009005947]
053 HE6183.M45
550 BT Postage stamps
The warrant is From weather gods to modern meteorology : a philatelic journey. Somewhere a weather and philately geek dances.
(A) 150 Online authorship [May Subd Geog] [sp2009006126]
053 PN171.O55
450 UF Internet authorship
450 UF Web authorship
550 BT Authorship
I bet there was a knockdown, drag out fight over ONLINE vs. INTERNET vs. WEB. Anyone care to make a minicomic depicting the struggle?
(C) 150 Oyl, Olive (Fictitious character) [Not Subd Geog] [sp2009004976]
450 UF Olive Oyl (Fictitious character)
Thank dog someone at Cambridge University finally saw fit, and conviced the Library of Congress to see fit to recognize Ms. Oyl! Popeye got his, as best I can tell, in 1994, in case you were wondering. Bluto and Wimpy are still waiting, if that makes you feel any better.
(C) 150 Terminally ill children in literature [Not Subd Geog] [sp2009005970]
BETH DIES.
(C) 150 Webometrics [May Subd Geog] [sp2009005897]
450 UF Bibliometry, Web
450 UF Cybermetrics
450 UF Internetometrics
450 UF Metrics, Web
450 UF Netometrics
450 UF Web bibliometry
450 UF Web metrics
450 UF Webometry
550 BT Quantitative research
550 BT World Wide Web—Research
Okay, maybe this is useful, but clearly also annoying. I just checked; WEBINAR is not an LCSH.

It's wrong of me, I know,
It's wrong of me, I know, but BETH DIES made me laugh.
