Another key standard (also maintained by BISG in the U.S.) is BISAC (Book Industry Standards and Communications) Subject Headings, also known as BISAC Codes. This is a rich subject taxonomy that was originally developed for the organization of the bookshelves in bookstores, and it's almost universally used in the U.S. for providing subject information about books through the supply chain and ultimately to the end users (aka "customers") who need to find and buy the books. There are similar standards in most other countries.
