The keyword "Fault In Our Stars" should not be used for the book "Mira In the Present Tense" since it refers to an unrelated work and would not accurately describe the content of this book
Here are some questions to consider when choosing keywords:
- Are the keywords truly descriptive of the content or will they mislead consumers? Using unrelated terms just to boost search results should be avoided.
- Have you considered keywords from the consumer's perspective? Consider all relevant terms consumers may use to search for the book.
- Are there commonly misspelled words or names that could be included to aid discovery? Variations may help consumers find the content.
- Are there words that describe elements not covered by other metadata like the location? Specific details can aid discovery.
- Are the keywords updated over time to reflect new information like awards or changes in popular search terms? Keeping keywords fresh helps discovery.

Questions
6. A word or phrase that describes the content or
theme of a book product that is
1) relevant to the work; and
2) used to supplement the title, subtitle, author
name, description, subject code, and other
consumer-facing display data
8. Online search has become more central to
book discovery
When browsing or searching online, can’t rely
on knowledgeable clerk or librarian – must
rely on search algorithms
9.
10.
11. Most major retailers use algorithms that pull
from title, cover copy, first-chapter excerpt,
subject codes – keywords can help refine
search results even further
Increase the likelihood that a book may be
found by consumers using keyword searches
within search engines and on retailer
websites
12. Keywords are not required data, but can be
used to supplement other metadata supplied
by publishers
Can callout elements of the book that are not
included in the title, highlight particular
content eg gluten-free breakfast
13. When the consumer’s search term is jargon,
very new, distinctive, or specific; for example:
Let Me Off at the Top!: My Classy Life and
Other Musings (BISAC Subject: HUMOR / Form
/ Parodies)
Possible keywords: Will Ferrell; Anchorman;
movies
14. When the consumer does not know the exact
title or author of a book, and the title may be
very different from the themes; for example:
Orr: My Story (BISAC Subject: BIOGRAPHY &
AUTOBIOGRAPHY / Sports)
Possible Keywords: ice hockey; Boston Bruins;
Chicago Blackhawks; NHL
15. To retrieve records that may be classified
outside of a specific BISAC subject, but include
the subject in which the consumer is interested;
for example:
Making Toast: A Family Story (BISAC Subject:
BIOGRAPHY & AUTOBIOGRAPHY / Personal
Memoirs)
Possible Keywords: widowers; grandparents;
grief; caring for children; domestic life;
alternative family
16. As consumers do not use BISAC subject
classification, search terms can be considered
synonymous with (or inclusive within) the BISAC
subject heading; for example:
Etiquette for Dummies (BISAC Subject:
REFERENCE / Etiquette)
Possible Keywords: manners; behavior;
grooming; dress; social situations
17. If a commonly known subject term is not
referred to anywhere else in the metadata; for
example:
Catherine, Duchess of Cambridge: A Royal
Souvenir (BISAC Subject: BIOGRAPHY &
AUTOBIOGRAPHY / Royalty)
Possible Keywords: Kate Middleton; Prince
William; Prince George; royal family
18. To point consumers to another author or title to
which the work at hand is directly related, such
as a sequel or companion that is written by
another author; for example:
Eliza’s Daughter (BISAC Subject: FICTION /
Historical)
Possible Keywords: Jane Austen; Sense &
Sensibility; John Willoughby
19. To highlight locations that aren't covered in
BISAC or its regional themes; for example:
The Orenda (BISAC Subject: FICTION /
Literary)
Possible Keywords: Georgian Bay; Northern
Ontario
20. Choose unique keywords
Keywords should be used to supplement (but
not duplicate) words or phrases included
within other ONIX data points
Variety improves discoverability
Use your space wisely
For example, for a title set in New York, a
more specific location, such as Hell’s Kitchen,
could be used in the keywords
21. Choose consumer-oriented keywords
Offer alternative phrases, synonyms, or
refinements to other metadata, using
consumer-oriented language
Consider all of the words and phrases that
consumers might use to search for a book
For example, for a title with World War II as
the setting or context (either fiction or non-
fiction), a set of keywords might include the
following phrases, among others: World War
2, Second World War, WWII
22. Choose relevant keywords
Keywords should be chosen because of their
ability to describe a book’s content
Referencing an unrelated work or author to
increase search results should be avoided
For example, publishers should use their best
judgment as to whether keywords such as
“Downton Abbey” are in fact relevant to their
works
23. Single words and multiple-word phrases of 2
to 5 words are acceptable
Cases in which there are legitimate spelling
variations of an important word (for example,
“Hanukkah,” “Chanukah,” and “Chanukkah”),
or cases where there are commonly
misspelled words and names, may be useful
Use as many synonyms as are appropriate
24. The maximum number of characters in the
Keywords field recommended by this
document, including punctuation and
delimiters, is 500
Because there is no current standard practice
among downstream partners on the limit to
number of keywords accepted or utilized,
keywords should be ordered based on priority
25. While it is a general best practice to avoid
using punctuation within keyword phrases,
some punctuation may be unavoidable in
phrasing
For example, there are some hyphenated
words users might employ (award-winner)
Limit special characters (such as “&”)
26. Spaces are acceptable within phrases
Semicolons, rather than commas, should be
used as delimiters, in order to accommodate
phrases
It is a best practice not to include spaces
following the semicolon delimiter
27. Keywords may be supplied in the Additional
Subject composite. Use multiple keywords
that are expressed as a single string of
independent words or keyword phrases.
Publishers should avoid using the Main
Subject composite to supply keywords
because this composite describes a single
subject value, while keywords are used to
describe multiple subject values.
30. Keywords should be sent with ONIX records
within six months leading up to publication,
and updated, as needed, with new or more
appropriate keywords after publication
As keywords are developed and decided
upon, they should be added, removed, or
changed in ONIX, as necessary, and ONIX
records re-supplied
31. It is a best practice to update the entire
keyword field in ONIX whenever a keyword is
added, removed, or changed within a
keyword string
Downstream trading partners should update
keywords whenever new information is
received
32. Updating keywords to include prize winning
information
Title: Boomerang Bride
Author: Fiona Lowe
BISAC Subject Heading: FIC027020
Romance/Contemporary
Original keywords:
wedding;Wyoming;bride;jilted bride
Updated keywords: RUBY Award winner;RITA
