Configuring fields in Advanced Search
The Advanced Search in the Searching interface lets library users refine a search to locate specific types of items. The Format Type, Language, and Library drop-down lists can be used to narrow a broad search. You can use Configure Advanced Search Fields to specify the values that appear in these drop-down lists. For example, you can remove specific libraries from the Library list to limit searches to available libraries.

Federated search targets, including Academic Reserves targets, are not available in the Advanced Search page to limit searching. |
