Another way most taggers don't think in terms of LCSH is precoordinated strings. Using FAST with auto suggest and complete might be something to consider.

Is there some other vocabulary that they think in? If LCSH is the best option, the right interface may help them "think in terms of LCSH". For example, auto-completion/suggestion of headings when tagging or searching might be necessary. -Shaun
