Sex Education and Sexuality before Stonewall:
A Historical Look at Subject Headings Used in the Education Index, 1929-1969.
by Gary M. Klein.
RSR: Reference Services Review (ISSN #0090-7324), 1994, v 22, n 4, p 29-44+.
"The nature and variety of sexual activity have changed little since the dawn of humanity. However, the language used to describe sexual activity varies with changes in social mores, religious beliefs, and technology. Likewise, there have been various levels of acceptance and repression of different sexual practices and open expression in literary form. In this article, Klein explores the hypothesis that Education Index has succumbed to the same types of societal and editorial marginalization as other indexing tools in assigning subject headings and providing cross-referenced access to literature in the fields of sex, sex education, and sexuality. He analyzes subject headings used within Education Index from 1929 to 1969. Despite the advent of online information retrieval systems, little has been done to retrospectively assign modern subject headings to the literature of the past thas has been buried under archaic subject headings."

The Telecommunications Act of 1996: The Indecency of it All!
by Gary M. Klein.
OLA Quarterly (ISSN #1093-7374), Winter 1996, v 1, n 4, p12.
A call to arms, written in response to news that the Communications Decency Act was put into
place when President Clinton signed into place The Telecommunications Act of 1996. The CDA criminalized
the distribution of certain vaguely defined types of electronic information, while allowing the same information
to be freely and legally available in other formats.
This article originally appeared in Moveable Type the newsletter of the Mark O. Hatfield Library, in Spring 1996, and
also in the Spring 1996 issue of Scene, both of which are publications of Willamette University in Salem, Oregon. The More Things Change, The More They Stay The Same...
by Gary M. Klein.
OLA Quarterly (ISSN #1093-7374), Summer 1996, v 2, n 2.
"Despite advances in high speed telecommunications, lightning fast processors, incredibly compact storage devices,
inter-network linkages, array processing systems, and the ever declining cost of computer processing, librarians and
information seekers face the same problems they did 50 years ago when the electronic computer made its debut. The
problem: determining how to find the data that someone thought worthy of offering up for public access."
