BISAC Subject Headings

BISAC headings are approved to use in Evergreen Indiana bibliographic records. The major or primary heading displays first, and then breaks down into specific headings and terms from there. Choose the primary heading that best describes your item. The primary heading is entered in all upper case and the terms are entered in title case.

YOUNG ADULT FICTION / Comics & Graphic Novels / Manga

HOUSE & HOME / Sustainable Living

FICTION / Fantasy / Dragons & Mythical Creatures

In the MARC record, the entire BISAC heading is entered in a single $a. The 1st Indicator is left blank and the 2nd Indicator is a 7. Include a $2 after the $a to describe the source the heading was taken from. For BISAC headings, the source is “bisacsh”.
