Each time that you search for library items, the library portal keeps a temporary record of all the searches that you perform. This Search History lists each search term that you entered, the abbreviation for the index you searched (such as TW for Title Words), and the Search Category.
You can repeat any search in the history or edit the search.
Tip: You can clear the entire Search History when the search terms are no longer useful. |
To view your search history
Click the Search tab.
Click Search History.
If you have not performed any recent searches, the Search History page displays a message that there are no searches to display.
If you want to repeat a search, click the underlined search term.
If you want to edit a search before you repeat it, click Edit, change the search terms or other search criteria in the provided search fields, and click Go.
Note: After you edit a search, the library portal saves it as a new search in the Search History. |
If you want to clear the search history, click Clear.
The library portal clears your Search History and erases all previous search shortcuts.
