Special mention should be made of organizational and structural features of this information and reference system. For the first, there is no clear functional differentiation between Reader- and Staff's facilities. User-oriented information requirements involve both content and organization, as well as relevant auxiliary material, additional record formats, annotations etc. No qualitative analytical data or advisory annotations are involved. Some cases combine alphabetical, classed and subject catalogues.
Enhanced retrieval is provided with relevant sub-headers within each tray.
