Catalog Search (w/ Tips and Tricks)

Use the library's catalog to search for Quality Management materials.

Tips to keep in mind when searching:

1) Searching for "Quality Management"  under the Key Word or Subject criteria will not always give you the best results.

2) Instead, if you are searching for Quality Management materials available in our library's collection, then use one or more of the of the following Subject Headings:

 Applied Systems Theory

 Q 295

 Benchmarking

 HD 62.15

 Business Continuity Management (BCM)

 HV 551.2

 Disaster Recovery

 HV 551.2

 Project Management

 HD 69 .P75

 Quality Assurance/Quality Control (QA/QC)

 TS 171.4 .C38

 Six Sigma

 TS 156.17

 Supply Chain

 HD 38.5

 Sustainability

 HC 79 .E5

 

These help narrow the focus of the search and can be helpful if you have a specific topic or area you're interested in exploring. If you want to know all of the Subject Headings for a particular item in our catalog, then click the Catalog Record tab in the item's record. You can click on one of the Subject Headings and it will bring up a list of all the other items in the library that have the same Subject Heading.

Important Note: Keep in mind that some of these subject searches will return mostly (if not all) ebooks and online resources. If you are only interested in book results, then select BOOK under the "Format" option on the Advanced Search page. This will get rid of all the ebook and online resource results and only provide you a list of books under the selected subject.
