About Subject Headings

Searching Knox Primo (including the All I-Share Libraries search) using terms that may appear in subject headings can be a very efficient way to find books on a topic. 

When you find a relevant book, look at the subject headings and take note of any terms that will be useful to you as search terms. 

Click directly on the subject heading to search for other books using that same heading:

 

Or, note the terms and do another search selecting the Subject Headings field:

 

 

Important Note about Language

You may encounter subject headings that are out of date as it takes time for the changes to propagate through all the different library catalogs. And, some headings that seems insensitive to us may be under scrutiny at this time. For example, discussion is ongoing about the headings for Indigenous peoples of the Americas.
