Some search limiters and/or Advanced Search indexes contain a set of entries that you may browse and select from (generally in a pop-up window) to build your search query. For example, you may browse a list of publication titles or your previous searches to see all possible entries available. This allows you to select the exact term or phrase used by the search system without having to type it yourself.
The particular search limiters and/or indexes that may be browsed depend on several factors, including the the collection you are logged on to, the type of search you are performing, and possibly the database(s) and/or module(s) you selected to search. You will know that a particular search limiters and/or index can be browsed when you see a Browse link or button to appear to the right of the input box.
Note that search limiters (if enabled) are displayed on the search input form below the Find box or other search input boxes. If available, click the More search options link to display search limiters. The ability to limit a search must be first enabled by your library.
Browsing indexes can be done on the standard Advanced Search page, as well as on the CCL Advanced Search page.
Refer to the "Using a Browse Page in this Collection" Help topic in the table of contents frame at the left for detailed information on how to browse and select entries.
