\n\t\t\tPopular Subjects and Categories\t<\/h2>\n\t

Note: We recognize that descriptions of people (races, ethnicities, etc.) are always changing. We have continued using the terms we first used in 2011 (i.e. “African American” instead of “Black”) in our general subject categories and terms because many of those terms are more easily searched and because we have a large database of books already categorized as such. Occasionally, a word or term will change its culturally recognized meaning (i.e. “diversity” now includes more sub-categories than it did in 2011); for those, we have done our best to use terms that best convey our meaning in a given context.<\/p>\n\t
