Step by Step Subject Searching

To search for books and videos using subjects:

  1. Go to the Library Catalog.
  2. Select the Subject tab.
  3. Enter the main idea of your topic in the search box. (Example: Nursing Care Plans, Congestive Heart Failure, etc.). The catalog will look at the subjects that have been assigned to all of the books/videos to find matches for your topic.
  4. You may also limit your results by Material Type, Location, and Language.
  5. Click on the title of the book you would like to see.

HINTS

Don't put an entire sentence in the search box!

Don't put keywords with the word AND in between.  That only works for keyword searches.

Subject Searches only use very specific words that have been assigned by librarians.

Look at the Subject Suggestions below.

  • communicable diseases
  • drug resistance in microorganisms
  • eating disorders 
  • heart failure
  • infectious diseases
  • pain treatment
  • patient safety
  • pneumonia
  • restless legs syndrome
  • stroke
  • trauma
