PathFinder

PathFinder is a suite of browse and search tools for subject-specific research, powered by a multi-level subject taxonomy that has been organized from the ground up based on our initial list of 1,500 “topics.” Now called Subjects, these granular research concepts have been categorized into increasingly broad levels. 

This multidisciplinary taxonomy tool can be located within the Law Journal Library in the database Advanced Search options, within search results, within the image toolbar when viewing a document, and on Author Profile pages.
