Sources of topic names

In some languages, AllMyBooks names a topic with the term an official vocabulary publishes for it — a national library’s subject headings or a public thesaurus — rather than with the topic’s English name. Each of those names is listed here with its source, a link to it, the date the source last changed it (where the source gives one) and the date we retrieved it.

Where a heading ends with a qualifier in brackets, AllMyBooks may show it without the qualifier, but only when the shorter name is not another heading. Those headings are marked “short form” below, next to the full heading as published.

The headings are reused as their publishers publish them. Listing them here does not mean that a publisher has reviewed, approved or endorsed AllMyBooks or the way it uses them.
