Search Results

The result of the iBistro search may be a single catalog record, a hit list of catalog records, or a hit list of URLs for relevant web sites.

If a list of catalog records displays, you can select the Full Details option to view more information about a particular record, and place a hold on the item. If the iBistro search located only one matching catalog item, the full catalog record or web resource record automatically displays.

If there is no direct match for the search term entered, a browse list displays.

Category Analysis
If you perform a search that retrieves titles with different classification numbers, iBistro analyzes them and returns a list of categories in the You Found Books in Categories box.

Example:
You perform a search for "gardening" across Everything. The search finds 298 titles, and you don't know where to begin looking. On the results page, iBistro provides a You Found Books in Categories box, containing iBistro's analysis of the classifications of all 298 titles retrieved in the search, the results of which are compiled into broad categories. You can choose to narrow your search of "gardening" by selecting the category that best describes the information you are looking for.

Copy Status
The copy status feature allows you to see copy availability, the estimated wait for holds on those copies if none are currently available, and the order status of any future copies the library plans to include in the collection.

Search Timeout Limit
The search timeout limit is the length of time that iBistro will wait for a search to complete.
