You may come into our library knowing something about what you're looking for, but rarely the full title of a book, the author's name or enough details to be successful. We've developed these subject indexes that are simply the listings of things, people, events, dates, records, etc. from the item you're looking for that may have enough information to get you a starting point.
We're adding to these lists constantly, so they may not be in proper sections or even a format that many libraries would recognize! But, they work for us. We may have a folder or file that someone's family member produced as a part of their research right next to a famous author's output.
You may want to scroll through a few of these pages to see how things can be listed. It's not a formal system. The information listed in the subject areas are simply shown in alphabetical order of the first word listed. Sometimes as many as three different subjects are listed for the item. So don't be surprised to see it shown in multiple index letters. The important thing is that you should get a physical location (wall letter and shelf in our room).
This are our subjects that start with the letter A. If that makes you think of another way your item might have been listed, here's a second level menu of first letters of subjects you can skip through to check for your subject.
