Searching

Search Controls

Edit your search controls, including managing what your patrons can do in different search interfaces. 

Search Details

Choose which details you want to show in the search results.

Default Program

Choose which program you want to highlight in search results. 

Override Program

Set individual programs to highlight in different areas of Researcher, or simply use the default.

Choose which areas of Researcher require patrons to log in. 

Timeout

Screens will timeout after the selected amount of inactive time, which logs out users and clears searches. 

Slideshow

Slideshow gives you a fun way to dynamically display any list of titles in your catalog for educational or promotional purposes. You can limit the Slideshow to display on a television or projector that does not allow user input or to a dedicated display that does allow user input—such as a tablet device on a display table. Additionally, one or several Slideshow URL's can be built and saved!

Enter the name of your slideshow here. The name will be shown at the top of the slideshow.

Search

This field determines what items are displayed in Slideshow. Enter a single search term (like Harry Potter) to perform a relevancy-based Smart Search, or enter a more complicated search string. You can even paste a Search URL in this field, and Slideshow will search for and extract the search string. The possibilities are endless!

Read Search Strings for more information on using search strings and building syntax.

Predefined Searches

Click to select and apply some of our commonly-used search strings without having to understand the syntax. Recently Added Titles, Highest Rated Titles, and Titles With Awards are just a few of your available options. You can also choose from one of your public saved lists.

Layout

Choose between a Split or Preview layout. If you open a slideshow on a mobile phone, it will default to the mobile layout.

• • Split. The current slide displays cover art on the left and item details on the right. Click the arrow on the left to go back a slide, and click the arrow on the right to move to the next slide.

• • Preview. A carousel containing the items in your list is displayed below the current slide.

• • Mobile. The current slide displays item details only, and a carousel containing cover art for other items in your list is displayed below.

Speed

Set the duration of the slide interval in seconds. The default is 5 seconds, but it can go as high as 60 seconds.

Transition

Choose the type of transition: Drawer, Fade, Ken Burns, or Push.

Style

Choose one of five styles: Bubbly Ocean, Classic, Seafoam, Professional, or Mosaic.
