MeSH Training Course

National Library of Medicine has a free online course on Using Medical Subject Headings (MeSH®) in Cataloging

Some of the thinking that goes into subject analysis for cataloging applies in building taxonomies. And of course, MeSH is a taxonomy itself.

(All examples are current as of the 2009 release of MeSH)
