Hi Cindy,Yes, I thought I had written back to you. The title you mentioned was Firestorm. I wasn't able to reproduce any errors. Using simple and advanced searches I was able to find the book without a problem. Are you still having trouble?

There was one the other day that I think I wrote to you about, Jake. Hopefully you got my message because not I can't remember what the book was. I couldn't find it by title in Search the bookshare.org but I did find it by author. G.Cindy --- Jake Brownell <jabrown@xxxxxxxxx> wrote:Hi Sue, I'm sorry to hear of your frustrations. I've worked with Bookshare's search a lot. I'm not aware of any outstanding bugs when searching by titles. To best address problems, we would need a specific example where things went wrong. That would help us reproduce the issue. Once we've done so, a fix is usually pretty obvious. Unfortunately we can't troll through all the search code looking for that one tiny error if we're not pointed in the right direction, smile. If you find some unexpected results in future, please tell me as much as you can in an email. It's probably best to email me directly so I'm sure to see your message. I usually see all the messages on list, but some day's I admit to subject surfing due to time constraints. My email is jakeb@xxxxxxxxxxxx Thanks, Jake Jake Brownell jakeb@xxxxxxxxxxxx----- Original Message ----- From: siss52To: bksvol-discuss@xxxxxxxxxxxxx Sent: Wednesday, February 13, 2008 12:24 PM Subject: [bksvol-discuss] Re: Searching I am posting on this list because some of the staff sees it. The search functions for searching the collection do not always work. So often I get the message saying there were no matches found, when I know a book is in the collection but do not know the author. And before you ask, yes, I do check my spelling.
