Ontologies, hierarchical (tree-like) classifications of all the articles and people in a collection, enable easy access to the content for novices and experts. The ComSoc Publications ontology organizes all content according to the publication, volume and issue in which it appeared. The Subjects ontology organizes the collection by general topics and more specific subtopics. There are approximately 500 topics in the subject ontology, with subtopics going 4-7 levels deep. The subject ontology, in particular, is useful for giving an overview of the field.
