  1. Consistency in subject heading terms is important because:

    1. there are too many words to look up.

    2. it helps the patron find all of the information on a particular topic.

    3. different words may be spelled in different ways.
       

  2. When cataloging sound recordings, either topical or genre subject headings can be used, but never both at the same time.

    True                 False
     

  3. If a cataloger chooses to use more than three subject headings

    1. the cataloging record should be redone with broader headings.

    2. too many search terms will be used in the computer.

    3. this may be because of the needs of the patrons of that library.

    4. the cataloger should not be allowed to catalog any more items.
