Minutes
I&R Subcommittee Conference Call
December 22, 1997

Roll Call:  Lou Diehl, Kathleen Kleinmann, Ed Pahula, Roland Sykes,
Lisa Cullen, Betty Shade, Shirley Ray, Marty Masters, Cindy
Williams, Betty Patterson, Cheryl Mosher, Tom Puschak, Linda
Richman

The group reviewed and discussed the proposed list of subject areas.  The
final subject list will be used to create the final database for the I & R
Statewide Database due to SILC by January 31, 1998.  The final subject
list was determined as listed attached: 
**************************************************************************



STATEWIDE INFORMATION AND REFERRAL DATABASE

INFORMATION & REFERRAL SUBJECT HEADINGS FINALIZED 12/22/97

All of the resource cards in the database must be listed in at least one
of the main subject catagories.  Some of the main subject catagories have
subcatagories to facilitate a search through a large number of cards. 
Those resource cards listed in the main subject catagories should not be
listed again in the subcatagory.  Likewise, those listed in the
subcatagory should not be listed a second time in the main subject
catagory.  Some resource cards may rightly fit into two different main
subject catagories.  In that case, a separate card is needed in each
subject catagory. 

Also, it is very important to use standardize words or "keywords" in the
"notes" section of the database.  Many searches will use these keywords to
further refine a search.  The group identified many of the keywords that
are critical to maintaining the integrity of the database previously
created.  Those keywords are listed in the right column of this subject
list. 

The "Tools" main subject catagory is used to identify those resources that
are useful for searching out other information resources, such as
clearinghouses or assistive device catalogues.  Be sure to list them under
the more specific main subject catagory as well as the "Tools" area,
whenever appropriate.
