Subject Searching in LION

You'd think you could enter any topic as a Subject search in LION. However, the Subject search uses special terms to organize books by subject. These are called Library of Congress Subject Headings (LCSH for short). If you enter your keywords as a Subject search, you may not get much back. For example:

If you entered a Subject Heading search for: acquired immune deficiency you would get four items!

But if you searched using the LCSH term, AIDS (Disease) you'd see the library has almost 1000 books.
