Abstract :
Catalogers of Web sites for a digital library face unique challenges. There are no well-established rules for cataloging the less structured and constantly-changing information object. Identifying problems arising from Web site cataloging process will provide insights in designing better cataloging systems to support the process. One of the approaches of exploring the problems and how they are dealt with is examining the notes that catalogers made during the Web site cataloging process. The paper presents a study of annotations made by cataloguers of consumer health Web sites in order to better understand the Web site cataloging process
