I submitted this request to the Library of Congress, idfeedback form:
I recommend adding terminology for http://id.loc.gov/authorities/sh85031589#concept from "Contraception" to include Emergency contraception, with cross-references for "The morning after pill" and "Plan B (Contraception)."
I will have immediate use for this heading to catalog a zine called A Woman's Voice, which deals with rape and resources for dealing with it: http://clio.cul.columbia.edu:7018/vwebv/holdingsInfo?bibId=8621507

Thanks, Bill. My bad. I was looking for Emergency contraception and didn't think to look for word variation. For some reason I didn't think the Authorities & Vocabularies search would support truncation.
I do think they should experiment with stemming and fuzzy search results, but I take responsibility for missing it!
