That happens some times and I'm not sure why. There have been several times that other people and me have used the Search for Title or Author space and not found the book we were looking for and then someone said that it's there and I found it by using the Advanced Search. I'm not sure why. I think most of the time I did something wrong--maybe mis-spelled something or had a space where there shouldn't have been or some such thing. I don't usually check both by title *and* author, and have found that that's necessary because sometimes one of them is mis-spelled but the other isn't.
