Finding Books - Subject Search
Subject Heading Search
A subject heading search, however,
only finds items on a particular topic. Subject headings use predetermined
words and phrases developed at the Library of Congress, not the
common phrases used in everyday speech. For example, books about
the Civil War have the subject heading:
United States--History—Civil
War, 1861-1865
For this reason it is more practical
to start with a keyword search, find a relevant item, and click
on related subject
headings for
that item.
