Search Tips
SUBJECT search will display a list of subject headings beginning with the word(s) you enter. Browse these for a relevant heading and to learn about the subject coverage in this area.
Alternative to keyword
Subject search is an alternative way (to keyword) to find works ABOUT A TOPIC. For example,
- church history
- iraq war 2003
- labor economics
- philosophy, european
Use American spellings
It is worth remembering that the subject headings we use are authenticated by the Library of Congress and use American spellings.
About an author or title
Subject search is especially useful for finding works ABOUT AN AUTHOR and ABOUT A TITLE, rather than those written by the author, or the title work itself. For example,
- eliot, t s
- Heidegger
- british broadcasting corporation
- beowulf
You may still find KEYWORD search useful for finding subject information.
