Assertion (A) : POPSI is an indexing system.
Reason (R) : It is used for the preparation of index to CC.
Select the correct answer from the codes given below :
Answer: A
(A) is true but (R) is false.
POPSI, the Postulate-based Permuted Subject Indexing developed by G. Bhattacharyya at DRTC, Bangalore, is a subject indexing system. It is based on Ranganathan's general theory of classification, but it produces subject headings independently of any classification scheme. So A is true.
R is false: POPSI is not the method of preparing the index to Colon Classification. The alphabetical subject index derived from a CC class number is made by Ranganathan's chain indexing.
