Building the Association Catalog for Books Based on Association Linked Network

Current library catalogs, such as author catalog, title catalog and so on, index the books from one aspect but cannot reflect the relations among relevant book classifications. In this paper, the association relations among book classifications are mined from a large amount of borrowing logs of readers. Based on the mined relations, the Association Linked Network of book classifications is built to present the association relations among book classifications. A new type of library catalog named Association Catalog for books (ACB) is proposed based on the association linked network of book classifications. By means of ACB readers can also get the books about the related disciplines, which are closely related to this book. The experiment results show that ACB can help the readers retrieve the related books in interdisciplinary learning and researching.
