cool-lex contains lexical and classification material pertaining to
conservation and preservation, including thesauri (or microthesauri),
glossaries, classification schemes, authority lists (descriptors,
subject headings), etc.  These items are segregated from other CoOL
databases in order to avoid false hits in the other databases.

These materials will be of particular interest to information retrieval
specialists and those involved with the operation of a technical
reference library for conservation and preservation.

  Topics include:
  
   Classification schemes and/or authority lists of preservation
   descriptors for
     Art and Archaeology Technical Abstracts (AATA)
     Applied Science and Technology Index
     Art Index
     Chemical Abstracts
     ERIC
     Library and Information Science Abstracts (LISA)
   Dewey decimal and Library of Congress preservation descriptors, subject
   headings, etc.
   information retrieval
   vocabulary control

Conservation OnLine (cool)
