-Books
------
+Catalogue of books
+------------------

 
 

-Books are kept in the :py:class:`catalogue.models.Book` model.  Dublin Core
-metadata, read by :py:mod:`librarian.dcparser.BookInfo`, are put in the
-`extra_info` JSON field.
+Books are kept in the :py:class:`catalogue.models.Book` model.

 
 

-Authors, kinds, epochs, genres are kept in :py:class:`catalogue.models.Tag`
-model with `category` field set to appriopriate value.
+Books have fragments, annotated  with themes. Those are kept in the
+:py:class:`catalogue.models.Fragment` model.

 
 

-:py:class:`catalogue.models.Tag` also contains :ref:`user-shelves`
-and :ref:`parent-relations`.
+Both ``Books`` and ``Fragments`` can have ``Tags``, which are
+:py:class:`catalogue.models.Tag` objects.

 
 

+What are ``Tags`` used for?
+---------------------------

 
 

-User shelves
-------------
+Each ``Tag`` objects has a ``category`` field specyfying its meaning.
+The categories are enumerated in :py:const:`catalogue.models.TAG_CATEGORIES`.

 
 

-User shelves (or tags on user's shelf) are just :py:class:`catalogue.models.Tag`
-objects with ``category='set'`` and ``user`` set to the owner. Shelves' slugs
-are generated automatically using :py:fun:`catalogue.utils.get_random_hash`.
+Tags are used for:

 
 

+* Keeping browsable metadata. Each ``Book`` can have any number of tags
+  of categories: ``author``, ``epoch``, ``kind``, ``genre``.
+  Each ``Fragment`` of a book has all of those, 
+  and also a number of ``theme`` tags.
+* User shelves. A User can put a ``Book`` on a shelf and add some labels
+  by adding a number of ``set`` tags to it. A book put on a shelf without
+  any labels has a Tag with an empty name.
+* Denoting :ref:`ancestor-descendant-relations` using ``book`` tags. 

 
 

-Parent relations
-----------------

 
 

-The source of parent relations is the
-:py:class:`librarian.dcparser.BookInfo.parts` metadata.
+.. _ancestor-descendant-relations:

 
 

-Parent relations are kept primarily in the :py:attribute:`catalogue.models.Book.parent`
-and :py:attribute:`catalogue.models.Book.parent_number` fields.
+Relations between ``Books``, ``Fragments`` and other ``Books``
+--------------------------------------------------------------

 
 

-They're also cached as :py:class:`Tag <catalogue.models.Tag>` relations.
-Each book has its tag (with :py:attribute:`slug <catalogue.models.Book.slug>`
-starting with ``l-``).  All of book's descendants (NOT the book
-itself) have its tag attached.
+Obviously, every ``Fragment`` comes from a particular ``Book``. This
+relation is expressed with the Fragment's ``book`` field.

 
 

-Arguably, this scheme has some potential for inconsistency.
+The source of parent-child relations between ``Books`` is
+the ``dc:relation.hasPart`` metadata field, exposed by
+:py:class:`librarian.dcparser.BookInfo` as ``parts``. This relation
+and the order of children of one parent is expressed with the child
+book's ``parent`` and ``parent_number`` fields.
+
+But aside from that, Tags are used for managing those relationships, too.
+
+Every ``Book`` has a matching `l-tag`. It's a ``Tag`` of category
+``book`` and matching slug with an added 'l-' prefix (the prefix
+is superfluous and we should remove it as some point, as it was only
+needed when tag slugs had to be unique).
+
+The `l-tag` of a ``Book`` is used on:
+
+* all of the book's fragments,
+* all of the book's descendants,
+* all of the book's descendants' fragments.
+
+This is used for:
+
+* finding fragments of a given theme in books with a given user label,
+* on a filtered book list (i.e., author's page), for eliminating
+  descendants, if an ancestor is already on the list,
+* when calculating tag book counts, for eliminating descendants as above,
