To get you started you might want to use very general subject headings such as:
Note that these headings will be subdivided by more specific aspects of the topic.
Or you may wish to use more specific subject headings such as:
Note that when you click on a subject a list of books or media materials will show up for that subject. If you click on a specific title, the entry for that title will come up and show you a very brief record with call number, title, author and library holding the item. If you click on the Details tab you will go to Item Information and find more publishing information and the item's status. There may be other tabs as well. The Look Inside tab will give a summary of the item, possible reviews, and table of contents. The Catalog Record gives you complete cataloging information along with subject headings for the book. You may click on the subject headings to be taken to the items listed under those headings. Look at those subjects to see if there is a heading you might be interested in trying.
If you are having difficulty in finding a subject heading or key word for your topic ask the librarians at your location for assistance or call 957-4610 for the Reference Desk at the Taylorsville Redwood Campus.
