English abstract

A comparison is made of subject assignment in several state-run public libraries in order to ascertain indexing consistency levels. For this purpose, eleven books dealing with different topics were first chosen and then located in the OPACs of several state-run public libraries picked at random in order to examine their index entries. The indexing consistency found is in line with the results obtained by other authors.

Spanish abstract

Se presenta una comparación en la asignación de materias entre diferentes bibliotecas públicas del Estado con el fin de hallar los índices de consistencia. Para ello, primero se seleccionaron once libros sobre diversas temáticas; en segundo lugar, se localizaron dichos libros en OPACs de bibliotecas públicas del Estado seleccionadas al azar; y por último, se hallaron los índices. La consistencia en la indización obtenida se encuentra en la línea de los resultados logrados por otros autores.
