Header info

[Malgorzata Schaefer]

Hi!
I'm relatively new also and have a related question pertaining to a small
business who wants to create an electronic library.  My job is to provide
what the header info should look like so that it will make it easy for
future upgrades to the data base implementation as well as provide faster
searches with the existing database engine by searching through the headers
instead of full text.  Does anyone know of a format for such a header?  Is
there a business oriented thesauri that could be used as subject headings?
Any and all info would be greatly appreciated (and in a hurry!)
Thank you.
