The Magic of Indexing!
The parts of each record or citation in an index or database are searchable. These parts are called fields. When you search by a field, the computer will "look" only in that field when it looks through all the records in the database. It will try to match your search term. |
| For example, the |
|
| Author Search looks only in the author field | |
| Title Search looks only in the title field | |
| Subject Search looks only in the subject heading field | |
| Date Search looks only in the date field | |
| But . . . a Keyword Search looks for items anywhere in the record. It is the broadest search. | |
