Abstract
The principles of indexing museum objects are the same as for printed publications, but several new problems arise because background information has to be indexed as well as information about the object itself, and museum indexes are increasingly part of computerized collections management systems rather than just catalogues. Comprehensive data standards are being developed by several projects. Thesaurus-controlled indexing, classification schemes and free-text indexing all have their parts to play
