To access the Limiters dialog, select Limiters from the toolbar or Tools menu. The

Limiters dialog appears with the current limiter settings. Limiters set to All do

not restrict searches in any way:

Allows you to select multiple

material types

Removes all limitations
Resets the limiters to their

default settings

Saves the limiter settings

Reading levels can range

from 0.1 to 20.0.

Limits the search to one

member's database -

available only for Union

Catalog Plus installations

Note:

Limiters are ignored during Accelerated Reader, Reading Counts, Lexile,

authority, call number, and category searches.

For Union Catalog Plus: In addition to the above limiters, your patrons can

choose to search the entire union catalog database or the collection of one

member library. By default, the entire union catalog database is searched.
To search a single member's collection, the patron clicks the Libraries button on

the Limiters dialog, highlights the desired member library, clicks Select, and

clicks OK on the Limiters dialog. The full site name of the selected member

displays at the bottom of the search window. The search results show only titles

belonging to that member, but the Copy Information window does include all

copies belonging to that title. The Copy Information window includes a Library

column showing the short site name of the member library with the copy, the call

number and sub location. Copy status and barcode numbers are omitted.
To clear the member limitation and search the entire union catalog database, the

patron must click Clear and click OK on the Limiters dialog.
