Abstract
The article deals with subject cataloguing of medical publications in the National and University Library in Zagreb, describing past practices and presenting new trends in cataloguing. Using examples from the Library’s catalogue, we have shown the applicability of the LCSH model in constructing and assigning subject headings – designing heading and subdivisions, and record updating. Specific features related to particular diseases, disorders, treatments from various aspects, are shown on a number of examples of complex topic headings.
