Hurrah! You no longer have to put in AND between keywords from different fields. It isn't obvious - but the example about Dr. Seuss and Green Eggs and Ham is gone. Now you can type seuss green eggs.
From the keyword search box on the catalogue homepage, you can search for a partial title, author, subject, or format, or combine different kinds of search terms (title and author, title and format, etc.).
Examples:
highsmith train - to find Patricia Highsmith's Strangers on a Train
heath ledger dvd - to find Heath Ledger's movies on DVD

Thanks for getting the word out, Frances. Most users probably don't notice this change - they're just more likely to get results for their searches - but it's good for staff to be aware of it.
