Learn how to save search criteria in OLIB.

You can save your searches for use during a later session. Having used a specific search strategy, that may include several search terms and be filtered and ordered in a particular way, you may wish to re-run this search frequently. For example you may want to save a frequently used search for all Titles containing the Keyword "pollution" catalogued after a certain Date Catalogued and ordered by Date Catalogued.

In a saved search the database query is stored. Every time you open the saved search the query is re-executed and an updated list of results is displayed. You can have an unlimited number of saved searches for your own personal use and they can be created in any domains.
