One of the unique features of the State University of New York (SUNY) Biomedical Communication Network is the availability of depth-indexed monograph information for on-line retrieval. Approximately 8,000 titles from the Upstate Medical Center Library collection in Syracuse, New York, were indexed in depth, chapter-by-chapter, as to subject content using the control vocabulary Medical Subject Headings. Detailed indexing of monographic conference proceedings was considered of particular importance to the project. This attempt to make monograph literature more readily accessible to medical library patrons is interesting from both a philosophical and a technical point of view. This paper will discuss both of these aspects, giving an overall description of the nature of this innovative project.
纽约州立大学（SUNY）生物医学通信网络的独特特征之一是可提供深度索引的专著信息以供在线检索。纽约锡拉丘兹上州医学中心图书馆馆藏中的约8000种图书，按照主题内容逐章使用医学主题词表这一控制词汇进行了深度索引。专著会议论文集的详细索引编制被认为对该项目尤为重要。从哲学和技术角度来看，这种使医学图书馆读者更易于获取专著文献的尝试都很有意思。本文将讨论这两个方面，全面描述这个创新项目的性质。
