Fiction, including children's fiction, does not
usually carry subject headings. To find a children’s story book
then, you could either:
- Limit
PILOT
to only search the children’s collection and then enter keywords
you hope will appear in the title or note field, or
- Use a reference book or online database, such as one of the following,
to identify titles of books about a certain subject and then put those
titles into
PILOT
to see if MU has the book.
A to Zoo: Subject Access to Children’s Picture Books (Ready Ref Z 1037 .L715 2006)
Best Books for Children (Ref Z 1037 .G48 2002)
