In this release, we’re introducing a new search parameter and have updated the default layout for the Advanced Search form.
You can now search for products using the Title/Series parameter. If you're not sure if a search term is a book’s title or if it’s the series name, using this combined search parameter will save you time in adjusting the Advanced Search form to suit your search.
We've also expanded the default number of opened parameters to three: Title/series, Contributor, and Imprint – three of the most useful parameters to get you started on finding your books. Use one, all three, or even more parameters, to run your search.
