Hello,
We also are a university library and it works for us too. Does anybody
know
if it is possible to include subject headings in Library Specific
Holdings
databases?(titles not included in the Knowledge base). That would be
very
useful.
Thank you!

Reclassification [SEC=UNCLASSIFIED]
Hi,
I use the Subject List of course we are not a special library we are
academic and it works for us - The problem I have is that there are
titles with no subject headings - I know SS is trying to work on
this
