title = {Aliens in the Library: The Classification of Migration},
year = {2018},
note = {This article examines the classification of migration and the
political implications of its vocabulary. It begins with an analysis
of the challenge that the topic of migration poses to traditional
methods of classification. These challenges are evident in the case
study of the 2016 petition to change the subject heading of “Illegal
aliens” at the Library of Congress, the Library’s proposal to
replace the term with “noncitizens” and “illegal immigration,”
and subsequent pressure from the House of Representatives to reinstate
the original phrasing in order to match the terminology of federal
laws.},
