I would suggest that the best subject list for database list might be the list of departments and or faculties you have on campus. That's how we chose to express our subject areas ( http://leddy.uwindsor.ca/research-tools) Our reasoning was largely based on this paper, "Students, Librarians, and Subject Guides: Improving a Poor Rate of Return" by Brenda Reeb and Susan Gibbons ( http://muse.jhu.edu/journals/portal_libraries_and_the_academy/v004/4.1reeb.html) who suggest that students have a hard time mapping research topics to subjects and so ideally, our databases / subject guides should be mapped at a course level. That was considered too much for us, so we map to the Department level instead.
