Headings List

Headings are standardized forms of the Subject or Author (and sometimes Title) that match your search statement. Headings found through an Author or Subject search are displayed in the Headings List. The Headings List displays the number of titles associated with each heading in the "Titles" column, and the heading name in the "Heading" column. The "Heading Type" column indicates what type of heading is displayed in the "Heading" column. Common heading types are Library of Congress Subject Heading, Medical Subject Heading, Personal Name and Corporate Name.

To display the titles associated with a heading, click on that heading or the line number to jump to the Titles List. If there is more than one page of headings, you can display the next page by clicking the  icon. You can return to the previous 10 headings by clicking the  icon.

See/See Also references also display in the Headings List. These references can be accessed by clicking the button in the left column. To return to the Headings List from another page, click the button.
