With Index Browse, you can review and select a search term from a list of existing data. This is possible because many MARC record fields have been indexed. You can browse a field index (such as subject, title, or author) to select a search term. This is particularly useful if you are unsure of the search you want to enter.
On the Enhanced Search page, in the first index list, select an index to search in (such as Author or Title). Then click the Browse button to the left. This displays the Index Browser page with the indexed entries.
NOTE: If the MARC field has not been indexed and therefore cannot be browsed, the corresponding Browse button is not available.
Navigate through the list to locate an entry to use as a search term. To browse for a specific entry, type a term in the keyword box at the bottom of the page and click Search; the list moves to the closest alphabetical match. When the desired entry is located, double-click it. This returns you to the Enhanced Search window and places the selected term in the keyword box.
Enter other search terms in the remaining keyword boxes, if desired. When finished, click Search. The Search Results page displays the list of search results. See Working with the Search Results page for more information.
