Sažetak
The paper discusses subject cataloguing of historical content in the National and University Library in Zagreb based on the Library’s own rules and, as of late, on the more frequent use of the Library of Congress rules. The rules applied in the process of selection and formation of geographic subject headings, and chronological and topical subdivisions are listed systematically. In addition to the periodization of Croatian history adopted before, a new periodization of Dalmatian and Istrian history, developed specifically for the purpose of this paper, is proposed. Furthermore, the paper provides a number of examples with comments from the practice of the National and University Library, and emphasizes that the principle of economics, regardless of its importance, should not be applied in the development of a subject catalog if it is to be a detriment to its quality.
