Conspectus Customizing your Conspectus The OCLC Conspectus is a subject hierarchy consisting of divisions, categories, and subjects. OCLC Conspectus The conspectus provides a framework to describe library collections, and is mapped to Dewey Decimal, Library of Congress and National Library of Medicine classification schemes. The conspectus is structured in hierarchical order, from broad divisions to very specific subjects and each level is increasingly more detailed. GIST makes the Conspectus automatically useful and customizable to your workflow – select areas to grow the collection or identify out of scope.
Conspectus – your collection building widget
