Thereby, the proposition was to perform comparative evaluation of subject indexing performed in catalogs of systems of academic libraries using the method of extrinsic evaluation through consistency. The aim was to contribute to studies concerning the practice of subject indexing and subject indexing evaluation in the context of knowledge organization on Information Science and the specific goals were to perform theoretical and methodological study on subject indexing and subject indexing evaluation in the field of knowledge organization and placing them in the context of academic libraries; to apply comparative study evaluating the subject indexing performed in two catalogs of systems of academic libraries and analyze the consistency of indexing as indicators of the quality of subject indexing in catalogs of systems of academic libraries. In order to do so, carried out a review of national and international literature on these topics as well as about the current context of academic libraries and applied comparative study of the subject indexing performed on two catalogs, using the method of extrinsic evaluation through consistency.
