The Lower East Side Librarian Library of Congress Subject Headings of the Week for Week 1, January 5,2011 are:
(A) 150 Fan fiction—Law and legislation [May Subd Geog] [sp2010015060]
I was hoping for a warrant juicier than Fan fiction and copyright: outsider works and intellectual property. I mean, that's a worthwhile topic, but I wanted it to be a class action suit from the original Star Trek characters or something.
(C) 150 Infatuation [May Subd Geog] [sp2010013193]
* 450 UF Crushes (Infatuation)
CRUSHES—Even if this is just a UF, I'm going to have to do some retrospective conversion (that's recon to those in the know) on this one. SO MUCH BETTER than "Interpersonal attraction," which is what I'd been using! Okay, I'm a dummy for not using "Infatuation" all along, but I'm trying to put that behind me.
(C) 150 Post‑apartheid depression [sp2010015096]
550 BT Afrikaners—Mental health
550 BT Depression, Mental—South Africa
Oh, those poor Afrikaners! The end of apartheid = a spike in Prozac use?
(C) 150 Thrash metal (Music) [May Subd Geog] [sp2010014785]
450 UF Speed metal (Music)
550 BT Heavy metal (Music)
Rock on, Bowling Green State University catalogers who proposed this heading.
