Abstract

Le manifeste du Classification Research Group, Faceted classification as the basis of all information retrieval (1955), a été réalisé au moins partiellement, et il semble évident que la classification à facettes a influencé une grande variété d’outils contemporains de recherche d’information. Cet article examine la théorie qui sous-tend la classification à facettes, explique comment et pourquoi la classification à facettes est devenue si populaire et décrit les avantages qu’elle présente pour l’organisation des connaissances. Le rôle de l’analyse par facettes comme instrument de recherche est également considéré, notamment par comparaison avec d’autres outils d’analyse utilisés pour la modélisation des domaines de la connaissance. / The Classification Research Group manifesto of 1955, « Faceted classification as the basis of all information retrieval », has been in part achieved, and there is much evidence of faceted classification influencing a whole range of modern information retrieval tools. This paper examines the theory underlying faceted classification, how and why it has taken up so widely, and what benefits it brings to the activity of knowledge organization. The role of facet analysis as a general research tool is also considered, and how it compares with other content analysis tools as a means of modeling subject domains.
