Ibid.
(C) 110 Jesuits—History—Suppression, 1773 1814 [sp2008001419]
Heh.
(C) 150 Male high school teachers [May Subd Geog] [sp2008004394]
450 UF Men high school teachers
550 BT High school teachers
Why is it women librarians and male high school teachers? And why no heading for MALE or MEN LIBRARIANS? They're the minority in our profession. Women should be the ones to be assumed to be the default, no?
150 Overweight men [May Subd Geog] [sp 94004807]
* 550 RT Obesity in men
Another case of women being the (seeming) default. I have no idea what the gender breakdown is in "overweightness," but I am confident that the reactions to being "overweight" are gendered.
(C) 150 Web browsing [sp2008006638]
450 UF Browsing, Web
450 UF Surfing, Web
450 UF Web surfing
550 BT Information retrieval
A 1998 book is the first warrant reference for this heading. Have they been arguing about including this heading for 10 years at LC? I wonder what finally made them secure that WEB BROWSING is here to stay.
