Ex: The human indexer works mechanically and rapidly; he should require no insight into the document content.

Ex: A focus conveys the key or principal notion of a concept.

Ex: It is easy to see that users and separate pieces of literature may hold different perspectives on one subject.

Ex: Parts of the abstract are written in the informative style, whilst those points which are of less significance are treated indicatively.

Ex: Amongst these are numbered: some specific legal and governmental works, such as laws, decrees, treaties; works that record the collective thought of a body, for example, reports of commissions and committees; and various cartographic materials.

Ex: Different conceptions of what subject indexing means are described.

Ex: A model of how librarians may actually go about book selection is presented in three ways: rationality; tacit knowledge; and symbolic content.

Ex: Her experience with many children has shown that often they can repeat sentences and read quite well without any inkling of what they are saying.
