You'd think you could enter any topic as
a Subject Starts With search 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 assertive behavior
as a Subject Starts With search you would be directed
to search for Assertiveness (Psychology)because
subject searching uses standardized terms to organize subjects.
So if you searched using the standardized
term Assertiveness (Psychology)you'd
see that the catalog has over 18 entries.
