News documentation lacks suitable instruments of classification and indexing, the only exception being the Subject Reference System of the International Press Telecommunications Council (IPTC), which is not yet fully developed. The most relevant contributions to classifying and indexing news in Spanish-language media, both in Spain and internationally, is reviewed. We also studied the development and use of controlled vocabularies for processing news information, primarily specialized thesauri. Finally, news documentation characteristics specific to indexing and information retrieval for print news media are described in detail.
