($count, $results) = &listsubjects($subject, $n, $offset);
Finds the subjects that begin with $subject in the bibliosubject table of the Koha database.
&listsubjects returns a two-element array. $results is a reference-to-array, in which each element is a reference-to-hash giving information about the given subject. $count is the number of elements in @{$results}.
Probably the only interesting field in $results-[$i]> is subject, the subject in question.

($count, $results) = &deletedbib($title);
Looks up deleted books whose title begins with $title.
&deletedbib returns a two-element list. $results is a reference-to-array; each element is a reference-to-hash whose keys are the fields of the deletedbiblio table in the Koha database. $count is the number of elements in $results.
