Enthusiasm in a searcher, of course, all are agreed on: 'he must delight in the chase for its own sake'.
With online display, the alphabetical arrangement can become less significant, since all look-ups can be achieved with the computer, and there is less need for the scanning of alphabetical lists.
Even a user who starts a search with a specific subject in mind, may be seeking a specific subject which does not quite match requirements.

If a search, manual or on-line, appears likely to last more than a few minutes, and should the librarian decide not to encourage the enquirer to join in the hunt, good practice requires that the visitor be given something to be going on with and invited to sit down.
It was not until the 16th century that falconry and stag hunting gained the significance that it retained until 1789.
'Searching' or even 'ordering' would be better, so long as we didn't imply by either of them an 'irritable reaching after fact and reason'.
'Systematic review' is the process whereby similar studies, identified from a comprehensive trawl of numerous databases, are summarized in digestible form.
The project consortium will complete a feasibility study into the automatic indexing of free text and the multilingual querying of text databases = The project consortium will complete a feasibility study into the automatic indexing of free text and the multilingual querying of text databases.

The typefaces available for computer print-out may detract from the scannability of an index.
As with author headings, sometimes one heading or title will be both sought and provide collocation, but on other occasions there will be a conflict between soughtness' and collocation.
This could be achieved by either enhancing content representation in the records within the OPAC data base or by enhancing the searchability and browsability of the OPAC.

Large central research libraries want improved access or searching capabilities most, while multilocationed libraries (public, academic, or special) want remote catalog access the most.
This could be achieved by either enhancing content representation in the records within the OPAC data base or by enhancing the searchability and browsability of the OPAC.

Correlations between native language and searching results and satisfaction are shown.
