FOREWORD
The Subject Category List presented herein has been endorsed by
the
Committee on Scientific and Technical Information (COSATI) of
the Federal
Council on Science and Technology, as a uniform subject
arrangement for
1) the announcement and distribution of scientific and technical
reports
which are issued or sponsored by Executive Branch Agencies, and
2) for
management reporting. The List is a two-level arrangement
consisting of
22 major subject fields with a further subdivision of the fields
into 178
groups. Scope notes are included for each group.
Abstracts, citations and the like, for announcement purposes,
can be
gathered into these broad subject fields or groups for display
to the user.
For distribution purposes, these fields or groups may likewise
be employed.
Similarly, the fields or groups may be useful for arranging
projects, tasks,
or programs for management reporting purposes.

The Task Group which developed the List was created by COSATI
with
representation from:
Atomic Energy Commission - Donald D. DavisDepartment of
Agriculture - Ann F. PainterDepartment of Commerce - Margaret S.
Hicks
Paul C. Janaske, ChairmanPeter Sofchak
Department of Defense - Terry GfilumPaul H. Klingblel
Department of Health, Educationand Welfare - Peter OlchNational
Aeronautics and SpaceAdministration - Hubert E. Sauter
The Task Group will now devote its efforts to the establishment
of
rules or guidelines for the development of vocabulary terms, and
to de-
velop a common vocabulary or thesaurus for indexing.
