Book Resources
Bellevue College has purchased many books to support the curriculum of the
radiation and imaging program. As our collection is always changing, the best
way to locate book resources is by searching the library
catalog. You can do an "All Fields" search for any topic. This
is a keyword search and is the most basic and generic way to search. For more
precise searching, search by subject headings. Subject headings use a controlled
vocabulary, so that all books on the same topic are described the same way.
Here are some subject headings that are relevant to your studies in the BAS program:
