Recensioner i media

'Gnoli's text is a well-written, brief, but mighty introduction to knowledge organisation. This book should be acquired by instructors and students of information organization courses who not only want an overview of knowledge organization concepts but want to deepen their understanding of answers to a range of theoretical and practical questions in the field'. - Technical Services Quarterly
