Subjects
Our list of subjects has been created to match Queen's academic departments (more-or-less, sometimes we've created sub-groupings when the subjects a single department (e.g. Drama & Music). You can always see the most up-to-date list of subjects on the Research by Subject page on the Library website. LibGuides admins will make sure that the list of subjects will match as much as possible.
Having said that, some other "subjects" may be used in LibGuides in order to properly create the dynamic listings we want on the Library website. We are still working on the details.
We don't plan to add subject associations to databases in LibGuides since we already do that work in the Library website's database search tools.
Tags

- best-bets
This is used, in conjunction with subjects, as an option to create the top list of guides on a Subject page.
