You'd think you could enter any topic as
a subject in the catalog. However, the
subject search uses standardized terms to organize records
by subject. These are called Library of Congress Subject
Headings (LCSH for short). If you enter your terms as a
subject search, you may be directed to a standardized LCSH.
For example:
If you entered dreaming
as a subject search you would be directed
to search for dreams because
subject searching uses standardized terms to organize subjects.
So if you searched using the standardized
term dreams you'd
see that the catalog has over 10 entries.
