One of the most effective ways of tapping into library catalogs is to search on the subject headings which are assigned to works in your field. The CSS Library and most other academic libraries use Library of Congress Subject Headings. These headings are found in the familiar (and monstrous) red books that are often seen near the reference desks in many libraries.
Listed below, are some of the chief headings which are assigned to works in Occupational Therapy. By following the links, you will execute a search in our local catalog and see some of the works which have been assigned each heading. In the search results, you will notice that the most recent publications have been listed first.
