There has always been a genre search for as long as the online catalogue has 
been running. I have asked that the text on the search page be amended so 
that it is clear that a genre search can be made and have been assured that 
this will happen.

Hi Ian and Bruce.

Thanks for your instructions.  It works.  No thanks to the unhelpful
response I had from the RNIB.

Have a looksey.

You cannot search by Genre at present, but you can put in an author's
Surname and the list will come up of how many books,etc.

Thank you

Thank you *** for your prompt reply.

Please could you tell me if it is possible to browse the Online Book
Catalogue by genre or view an author list?

I am so far only able to run various searches using varibles such as
authors name and title...
