Type up to three letters of the word that follows the first significant word. Type a comma. All derived search keys can be qualified by type of material or year of publication. To use qualifiers, type the search key followed by a slash and the qualifier. Precede each qualifier with a slash.
Qualifiers use information in the fixed fields of the bibliographic records.
If the fixed field information is incorrect, qualifying the search will exclude usable records. Most searching can be done based on the information already provided. See Guide to Searching the Online Union Catalog for additional information. If there are spaces, search as separate words. It is generally better to search both ways since it may be difficult to know how the record has been entered.
