Subject Headings
The Library of Congress's description system uses various "subject headings" to describe books about the PMC:
management • executives • professional employees • corporate governance • civic leaders • corporate culture
In HOLLIS, you can use any of these headings in a Starts With / Browse search to look for books on the topic. See the example below.
HOLLIS Search Filters
Search limits such as these appear on the right-hand side of the HOLLIS screen when you do a search. Most databases provide similar ways to refine a search.
