Using subject searches

When you have performed a search, you will see a list of subjects (topics) in the right-hand column. This list contains subject headings from different subject headings systems, including keywords.

Click "Show more" to see all the subjects related to the results. When you click on a subject, the results are narrowed down to the materials related to that particular subject heading.

With the "Advanced Search" option, you can use a subject heading from a particular register, like the ones listed at the top of this page.

Important! Using subject headings produces good results for materials found in the local libraries. Full-text materials (articles, e-books and e-journals), however, might be excluded from you search if they do not use subject headings.
