Abstract
ALTHOUGH PUBLISHED SUBJECT BIBLIOGRAPHIES would Seem to have lost thei r value due to the availability of electronic catalogs and indexes, th ey still play an important role in winnowing the vast amount of inform ation derived from these resources. This article supports this claim t hrough an examination of an information search of a study of the subje cts of play and leisure. The complementary notions of bibliography dra wn by Marcia Bates (1976) and Patrick Wilson (1992) show the continuin g importance of well-conceived and carefully executed bibliographies f or interdisciplinary areas.
