Keyword search
Each record in the library catalog contains specific information about a work,
such as the title, author, and subject. You can search these record fields for
keywords. A keyword search in any field looks in all the search fields of the
library catalog to find your keyword text.
-
Browse search
When you browse the library catalog, you can type just the first few letters
or numbers of your search term—an author’s name, a subject, a series name, a
title, or a call number. The results list shows the portion of the catalog
index that begins with the text you have typed.
-
Exact search
An exact search looks for your exact text, from beginning to end, whether your search text is multiple words or just one word.
-
Advanced search
With advanced searching, you can do a complex, focused keyword search,
combining several search terms and selecting a search field for each one.
-
Boolean search
With a Boolean search, you can do complex, precise searches by typing
CQL (Common Query Language) search commands.
