Page Comparison

Use quotation marks (“ “) around your search term or phrase to find an exact match.

In the Quick Search bar, the quotation marks indicate that you are looking for an exact match to your search phrase in titles or series names; contributor names; BISAC or Thema subjects; publisher, imprint, or supplier names.

This is especially useful for cases where:

• Your search terms include few, short, or common words. Example: ““As You Like It”

• You’re searching for a phrase with repeated words. Example: “There There”

• You want to specifically include the title prefix to limit your possible matches. Example: “The Help”

• You do not want to wildcard at the ends of your search terms. Example: You want to see matches for “dragon” but exclude dragons, dragonbreath, dragonheart, etc.

You can also use quotation marks in Advanced Search fields to find exact matches for your Boolean search terms.

Publishers and sales representatives have a new set of Advanced Search filters. You can now limit the search results to items that are in your own private custom catalogues, that are in your account’s collaborative catalogues, or alternatively the title that are not in any type of custom catalogue.

You can multi-select these filter options. When multiple options ar selected, the system uses an OR logic when returning matches. So if you select the two options: 'In my private catalogues'; and, 'In collaborative catalogues', the system will return all titles that are in at least one of the two catalogue types - not only the titles that are in both types.

In the Advanced Search form, use the new “Accessible products” checkbox to search for titles that include accessibility details.

If your search results include any titles that provide accessibility details, you will see the Accessibility filter display in the left sidebar. You can expand the Accessibility filter by clicking the + symbol to see the types of accessibility data available.

The accessibility data points are grouped into categories for your convenience.

• Accessibility features - The majority of specific features for accessible experience will be listed in this category.

• Compliance and certification - If you are looking for products that have passed specific certification, you can see more detailed compliance details in this section.

• Limited accessibility - If you have selected the accessible products search checkbox in the advanced search form, titles with limited or unknown accessibility data will be excluded from your search results. However, if you are doing more general searching, you can select this category to see publisher-supplied details of accessibility limitations.

• Contacts for more information - You can limit your results to titles where there are additional contacts for further accessibility information. This might be a publisher or product website, or an email address where you can request more information.

Select one or more checkboxes to expand the categories and view further options to refine your search.

You can limit your results to titles that contain the specific accessibility features that you’re looking for by clicking one or more of the resulting checkboxes.

If you select options from more than one category, you will see the results from both categories combined in your search results.
