The bibliography is organized alphabetically by subject
and is also accessible by broad categories, as noted on the bibliography main
page. Titles appear under only one
subject heading. In addition to the
primary subject headings (listed below), there may also be a sub-heading as
delineated in the following table.
These sub-headings are not subjects in the usual sense, but are used
to indicate the book’s format, focus, or approach. The primary subject headings are given in
the left margin of the bibliography in all capital letters, while the
sub-headings are in initial capital – lower case form, as: |
