- AnnaClaire: If subject headings are to be believed, this is a "pictorial work" about a town in New Jersey, and not a novel about the female residents of a town in England.

- Explanations
- AnnaClaire: There are two sets of effectively doubled headings and it goes downhill from there. Scroll down to the H's, and it's called a comic book, a film, a large type book, a "Toy and movable books" and a videodisc. And somehow got sorted with a certain Mary Shelley novel.

- AnnaClaire, ahef1963
- Explanations
- AnnaClaire: Quite a few subject headings from the movies. A few oddballs made their way in, too. There are also a number of headings in French that duplicate their English counterparts.

- AnnaClaire: Fortunately, the only *wrong* heading is "7.150" -- mostly the problem is duplications from misunderstood text.

- AnnaClaire: There's the work-level "Electronic books" in there. And some French dupes of headings already there in English -- at least, once you correct for some wrongly-escaped characters.
