About Titles List

Titles List shows results from all searches except for Subject Index, Name Index, and Keyword; or when the search results in a single catalog record.

A Titles List also displays as a result of selecting and displaying a heading with one or more titles from the Headings List display. Each row of the display includes a brief description for a single title in the NLS Voyager Catalog. While most searches display "author," "titles" and "date" of the work, the information in a Titles List may vary depending on the search method used.

A Titles List display consists of an upper section, and a lower section.

Upper Section

The upper section of the Titles List consists of a table containing five columns of data for each title, and a block with location information and the book number. In addition, there are buttons allowing you to retain selections from the screen of hits, as you move to subsequent pages in the search results.

Display Tips:

Entries in the Titles List are normally sorted first by Author/Creator, then by Full Title, then by Date (in descending order); however, it is possible to resort the list multiple times using the drop-down menu.

If there are more titles than will display on the screen, the next group of titles can be displayed by selecting the Next Page icon. Return to the previous group of titles by selecting the Previous Page icon.

Display any single catalog record from the Titles List on the screen, by selecting the link on the record #, or on the Full Title.

After displaying a single catalog record for the title, return to the Titles List by selecting the "Titles List" link from the navigational toolbar displayed at the top of the screen.

Catalog records from the Titles List can be printed, saved or emailed. Go to the Print, Save, or Email help screen for more information
