| Searching for a topic by keyword
A keyword search in Orbis allows you to search most words in the catalog
record. Since Orbis is reviewing the entire database and not a specific
part of each record, the keyword search takes longer than author, title,
or subject searches. If you know that you are only interested in identifying
manuscript and archival sources, it is almost always more efficient for
you to use a keyword search.
- Click on the MORE LIMITS button
(at the top right of the results list) and look in the Item Type box.
- Highlight Archives and Manuscripts
(1 of 2, select both) hold the Control key and also highlight
Archives and Manuscripts (2 of 2, select both).
(You must select both for this search to be complete.)
- Click the Set Limits button.
- Enter:
Health and Insur? in the Search for box. (Remember the ? is the
truncation symbol in keyword searching.)
- In the Search In box, highlight
Keyword (MUST use and/or/not or " ")
- Click on the Search button.
With keyword searching you can also limit your searching to a variety
of other media and item types including visual materials and microformats,
as well as to specific libraries or collections.
- Click on the POST LIMIT button
(at the top right of the results list) and add the limit for microform.
- In the Medium box, highlight
Microform.
- Click on the Set Limits button.
- Select the record for Reminiscences
of Arthur Joseph Altmeyer, 1966, [microform] and display it in the
Long View.
Note that the original of this reminiscence is in another library.
