dc.description.abstractIn this paper, we report results of an investigation where thirty subjects were observed performing subject-based search in an online catalog system. The observations have revealed a range of misconceptions users have when performing subject-based search. We have developed a taxonomy that characterizes these misconceptions and hypotheses about the causes of the misconceptions. Directions for improving search performance are also suggested.en
