• This is the very broad and general topical category that the resource pertains to.

• Each library collection has its own pre-set list of Main Subject categories.  (See lists for specific terminology, below.)

• Choose ONE Main Subject category that you think the resource best fits into.
  If you think the resource would fit under multiple subject categories, see Tip, below.

• Make sure you are choosing a Main Subject term from the corresponding library collection that your resource will be housed within.
