Thingology (LibraryThing's ideas blog): An academic take on L...

Thanks very much for reading my paper and for writing such a thoughtful response!
Thanks also for the clarification on the LCSH aggregation. For the purposes of this (exploratory) research, I was attempting to limit the comparison to just the headings assigned within the LC catalog, but if/when I delve deeper, I'll be sure to take this into account.
SIG/CR provided a great opportunity to engage in conversation about folksonomies and controlled vocabularies: interested parties may want to visit the conference paper archive at DLIST to read more.

It's not impossible to get the LCSH headings changed at LC. We do listen to input, especially author's input. Email me and I'll see what I can do.
