Hopefully you have access to EBSCO, as they're doing some cool new stuff. If not, head over to the nearest library that does!
** Clustering **
Clustering displays the most common subjects, authors, and journals available for a specific query, eliminating the need to browse the result list or check individual records for this information. You can "drive down" through the results by selecting "clustered" headings, obtaining results for the selected cluster.
