Abstract
Image processing technologies are offering considerable potential for library and information units to extend their databases by the inclusion of images such as photographs, paintings, monograph title‐pages and maps. Discusses problems and potential solutions in a structured fashion, based on categories of thesauri (text and visual), hybrids, description language and automatic content analysis, with state‐of‐the‐art examples.
