How Does the Search Work?


When searching for Title, Author, and Subject terms, the search function searches those specific fields in the Long Display and the MARC Records, and will therefore only bring up books and journals. The Keyword search will look for images as well as books and journals. The Keyword search tool searches each record for the specific combination of words that is input. The abstract is also searched. If the search word or words occur in one record, that record is displayed in the results, even though the words may not be next to each other in the record. The whole Dublin Core record is searched because the search tool can't differentiate between fields in that type of record like it can in a MARC record. At this time we do not have the capability to include Web Resources in the search process.
